Thrift Store finds & outgoing mail ~

So I forgot how much I love to go thrifting ! It's been a long time since I hit up a thrift store so I decided to go to a new one that just opened in town. The first thing I asked the lady who worked there was "Where is the stationary paper products??" ha ha... She led me to where they were and I I found stationary, greeting cards, regular paper, etc. there was ALOT of vintage pens in fancy boxes and If you know me then you know I have a mad pen fetish! So I had to Check them out and I gasped when I found a vintage Parker pen by Waterman.... It writes realllly really nice (^∇^)I also found a pack of stencils for $2.00 and I was happy for that too, because in the craft stores for just one, it's about that price, so I was happy. Also I found a pack of frienship cards for a dollar
(^∇^)I am always looking for friendship cards since I write to my friends, hehe. But here are the pics of my finds, and also an outgoing letter to the beautiful Maria. (*^o^*)



 This pen writes beautifully & so smooth!


This is the "Bargain Bag" of Friendship Cards I found, very nice!

Isn't this cute writing paper? Its the comic "Family Circus".
