It’s time for one of my favorite posts every month—time to reveal what is in this month’s Happy Mail and Messy Box kits!!!! If you haven’t heard, we offer two different monthly subscription kits. Happy Mail features exclusive ABM designs on various greeting cards, stationery items and art prints. Messy Box also features exclusive ABM designs on papers, cards and other embellishments for paper crafting and scrapbooking. Both are super fun and super affordable!
Above you can see all of the items in this month’s Happy Mail. We have some cheeky designs this month on various cards, a pretty art print, a notepad and a few tiny (read: too cute!) washi tape dispensers. Fun!
And here you can see what’s in Messy Box this month—lots of exciting and BOLD patterns you can mix and match in your albums. We are also really excited to see how subscribers use the word bubbles! Be sure to use the hashtags #ABMhappymail and #Messybox if you share your creations this month. 🙂
To see every single item in this month’s kits, check out this video:

Love the music and new format in the video reveal!
I miss you and Elsie discussing the box!
SO excited about this month’s happy mail but I’m so sad you guys aren’t back to explaining each piece in the unboxing video! I loved hearing all the fun details about the stuff and who designed what and what inspired you guys. Also this video was really fast and I couldn’t see the text on a lot of the cards! I hope you guys go back to explaining everything but regardless I’m super excited for my stuff this month!!!
Literally this all couldn’t be more perfect!

Love that print with the Mary Oliver quote! Would go great in my future kiddo’s room! We’re newly licensed foster parents and we’re trying to fill our (currently empty) nursery/kid’s room with lots of positivity and empowerment!
Can’t wait to get mine! Everything is wonderful. I had a question for the ABM team/ fellow readers. Do you have any suggestions for a good holder/box for all of the happy mail cards? I’m trying to think of the best way to store them. Thanks in advance. 😀
LOVE both boxes this month!!! Love the bold prints in messy box and love every single card in happy mail. I’m especially happy that there’s not really a significant other card in happy mail. My stash for those is really stacking up! So excited for my boxes to come!! Great job guys!
I also loved the video. Watched it like three times!
The last few kits have been too strange of patterns! Maybe you could have guest designers each month to bring in new ideas? Or sample packs of “messy” embellishments?
Why are there less cards in this month’s messy box?
I love how easy it seems to open the box. Mine never looks that graceful. maybe i’m just too excited to get it open 😉
This is how I have been storing mine! Some of these boxes come w/ separators so that you can categorize.

I am looking forward to receiving my box. I am also looking forward to video reveals done by you guys. Ha. I thought this one was shot awkwardly. I couldn’t read the insides of the cards because she closed them so fast and it wasn’t focused. And like someone else said, I like hearing y’all talk about them. But either way, excited for the box! 🙂
So glad you guys brought the video back! Much more gratifying for me to obsessively watch until it comes in. 🙂 love all of the tape this month!! <3
Also, love the crazy pattern-ful pack this month. It’s so fun to have a simple month, one month, then a crazy pattern full month after. So great to mix and match. 🙂
these are both so cute! definitely going to look into them! xx,kenz

I love the happy mail package this month! I love the lipstick print and just the color scheme in general.

Love the boxes, but I miss the old video style. It felt a bit more personal.
I really love the bold patterns but… Is it me or do they have a lot less paper in the messy box this month compared to previous months?
I use this letter sorter that I found at Target – holds a ton of my cards, along with stamps, stickers, etc.!

I like the designs this month, but feel like there are a lot of flat cards! I just don’t like flat cards at all and have trouble using them – I guess I don’t like people being able to easily see what I write to people and they’re hard to stand up. Anyway, I know they’re cheaper but I really have no use for them 🙁
I really like those ethno graphic patterns, I would love to have such a kind of fabric!

I prefer you girls discussing what’s in the kits rather then the music. I hope once you girls are settled in your new homes you’ll bring back the old school videos ?. I look forward to my messybox every month!
The correct spelling is stationery. Not stationary.
Hi ladies! This is just my two cents. Other people may think differently. I really love the stationary this month but I missed Emma and Elsie’s commentary…I know you guys are further away now, but couldn’t you switch off on doing the video? I loved hearing your thoughts on the products and plus you’re both totally adorable on video. More Emma and Elsie! 😉
I love the “Now Playing” vinyl post-its!!! AMAZING. I wish those could be sold separately too.
These are AMAZING! Can’t wait to get one!
These are so cute!
This box looks adorable! 🙂

They are all so gorgeous:)

Your blog is definetely the most high-quality blog I’ve ever seen!
What a bunch of gorgeousness! Loving it!
Love all the colors and patterns! The little washi tape rollers are cute, but it seems like there is way less tape on the rolls than in past boxes where there was just a plain roll with no dispenser… I would LOVE to see a writing utensil in the messy box at some point. Just a thought!
Sorry ladies, but I’m glad I cancelled my Messy Box after September’s utter disaster. I didn’t think the Messy Box could get worse but you’re proved me wrong.
Ciao.
So fun! I can’t wait for mine to arrive!
I was super disappointed when my box arrived today. There are way fewer cards in the messy box than previous boxes and I actually had to come here and double check to make sure I wasn’t missing half my box. And one tiny thing of washi tape isn’t enough to make up for how little paper was in the box. If I didn’t have a 6 month subscription, I definitely would not have gotten this box. It’s not enough for the money this month.
Hey Teresa,
I’m so sorry you were disappointed in this box. We have forwarded your feedback along to our business partners who produce the box! xx- Elsie
i just opened my October messy box and really curious if the girls would actually use most of the contents! The speech bubble cut apart is the main embellishment!! A few cards heart stickers paper and speech bubbles!!?? I’m kinda insulted. Where is their style? It was definitely in the first few kits.
So disappointed.

Sigh… I was ready to sign up for the messy box this month. I’ve loved your designs because they are so different from all the other scrapbook subscriptions I’ve seen, but now that there’s less items in the box it doesn’t seem like such a good value. Im mostly not sure i like that it’s been something that has been glossed over without an explanation. I also contacted support with questions and after three days I still haven’t heard back :(. I think ill just wait and see if the customer focus gets better. Beautiful designs though – as always :).
