I always love the flat (not folding) cards – I don’t feel like I have to write too much to make those look good. I keep my cards in an expandable file folder and organize them by type: stickers, thank you, love, congrats, get well, etc. Easier to find that way.
Love it!
Everything looks perfect x

Did the yearly planners get discontinued for 2017? They’re normally out by Thanksgiving :S
The house card is the cutest! I just sent some today – I love the cards that are general to say hello to a friend. Also the green muchos gracias envelope is my favourite colour
Hi Sara! We aren’t doing planners this year, but we have planner accessories in our shop! -Jacki
I have a mail drawer in my desk. My Happy Mail is filed vertically and sorted by category with tabs to indicate the type of card. I get so much joy from thumbing through them to find the perfect card!
Always psyched for my messy box when the art is designed by Rachel! Merry Christmas, y’all.
I have a plastic bin with all my happy mail cards by my work space with the rest of my etsy shop and craft stuff …it’s so nice having it all together BUT I think I need a bigger bin ๐
I love the little name card tags ‘no peeking’ is just the perfect amount of cheeky and playful.

Happy mail looks so fun! http://www.likehanna.com
Ooooooo… I REALLY like this one!
I love the little tags and this months’s colour scheme. Please do the card organisation post! I keep mine in a box and just order it by size, except for the birthday ones which I keep separate.
I’m pretty sure the crystal ball you mentioned is a snow globe…for the month of December.
Haha! You’re right. THINK FAST ELSIE :))

HI, I hope this is not an inappropriate question… if it is then please accept my apologies. May I ask where you get your cards printed? They are beautiful, and if possible, I’d love to get some of my custom work printed (for friends and family only, so they will be only a few in number), but most local printers here only print in bulk. Is that what you do as well? Print in bulk?
Hi Maliha,
Yes, Happy Mail is printed in bulk (here in the USA).

This is so cute! I need to get one.

Thanks! May be I’ll print this in bulk too and just give them out in bulk also! Hopefully someone will find some use for them ๐
love love love the messy box color scheme!
i keep all my happymail in plastic buns but the only type of organization involved is by size! i definitely need some tips/advice and what products to buy to make storing them more efficient. I guess for me I like cute, girly colors and tones more because I send way more cards to my gal pals than anyone else.
I love all the cards but I think the marble Happy Birthday card was my favorite this month! I store my Happy Mail in a vintage train case that I got at a Yard sale. It’s great because I can move it from room to room and it’s big enough for stamps, stickers, cards, washi, and pens!
The Messy Box colors and illustrations are killer this month! I can’t wait to use them in my December Daily!!
Is the snow globe meant to be a stamp that you attach to a stamp block? Just want to understand what it’s for!
I second this! I came here (and watched the video) hoping to find an answer to this question, too! Until I opened it, I thought it was a sticker, but it definitely isn’t. Still no idea.
Hi Maggie! Yep, you just need a stamp block to use it. ๐ -Jacki
Yes- acrylic stamps are used with acrylic blocks. But if you don’t have one you can use pretty much anything- even the bottom of a mason jar or small dish- anything it will stick to! :))

your custom boxes is very beautiful and attractive i really like your boxes i love it
How do I use the stamp outline? It is cute!
