They write You read, You write They read, it’s a unique bond, sounds a little old fashion but what can I say… I’m an old fashion kind of girl.All this talk of letter writing has me thinking about stationary. I haven’t had real stationery since I was a teenager, perfect excuse to make some. Maybe this craft will inspire me to write more letters. I really want to get a letter exchange going with my Nana, I know I would cherish her letters forever. OK OK enough about me. On to the tutorial!
