mail art | pretty in pink paint chips

i've owed my friend shawna a letter for awhile now but i've been so busy with holiday stationery orders. when j and i were at the hardware store the other day i stealthily snagged a bunch of these beautiful pink paint chips. i made an envelope* out of some of them and then wrote my letter on the rest! i also included a little surprise for her impending birthday celebration...







* can i write an address like that? will it still get delivered if each word is on a different line?

    looks amazing..i always sneak out these colour charts but i never really know what to do with it, thanks :)

    That is such a cute idea! And I think it'll still get delivered, I don't see why not.
