Outgoing Ocean Themed Flipbook

Hi everyone! Today I have an exciting post for you! It's been a while since I last posted but for a good reason...I have created my first ever YouTube video and I'm sharing it with you right now! In the video below I show you a flipbook letter that I have created. A flipbook is a creative letter for your penpal that has several pages to flip through and often has a theme. My swap partner and I agreed on the theme 'Ocean' because we both love the wonderful colours and creatures of the sea! It was a lot of fun to decorate my letter with a variety of my favourite stationery including washi tape and stickers! Not only am I sharing with you my first ever YouTube video, I am also showing you my first flipbook! I recently got into creating happy mail so I am trying out lots of different techniques! I hope to make a tea party themed flipbook soon for the same swap partner where I can use my new doilies! By the way, the picture of the beach scene inside the flipbook was drawn by Kenza from http://5starartists.blogspot.co.uk/ .If you haven't already, go check out her blog because it's full of awesome art! Let me know what you think of the video and the flipbook in the comments. Would you like to see more happy mail posts from me? I have lots of outgoing and incoming mail that I would love to share!

    Megan, this flipbook is SO awesome!! The penpal idea is giving me so much inspiration... When I first saw this post (sorry I'm commenting late!) I got really excited! :D So honoured that you included the beach picture as well - thank you!! <3 I love the different features that you chose to include in this one and the theme is so inspiring too. ^^ I'd also like to mention that I love the way you arranged the flipbook... it's beautiful! :3 How long did it take to put the flipbook together? This post is definitely one of my favourites from you! :D I'd love to see more!

      Hi Kenza! Thank you so much! I'm really glad that you were inspired by my happy mail posts! I'm really enjoying creating them! You're very welcome, I loved the beach picture you drew and thought it would be perfect for the ocean theme! It took me a few days of practically non-stop crafting to fully complete the flipbook (about a week I think). Thank you! I hope to be posing a few more penpal posts soon! :)
