I love the envelope of this one but not so much the way I ended up writing the quote but it was so lengthy that I was worried about it not fitting. I was supposed to put a different one here but ended up getting mixed up with them in my haste to put them out and about. It doesn't matter though as the main thing is someone gets them and feels a little cheery by the decoration if not the quote.

We went to the other end of the supermarket and came back, I saw a lady standing right in front of this spot and I thought that she had opened the envelope and was looking through it but it was her shopping list and she didn't even acknowldge the card. The downside to placing them in such places is that people end up thinking they are part of the display.

I'm curious to know if you are green fingered. Someone bought me a plant recently and its the first time I knew about repotting so I did and it is blooming so much I can't help but think wow every time I see it. It needs repotting again as its grown that much but I guess when winter comes it won't be flowery anymore... at least I know I can keep a plant alive for more then a month at least... still I haven't ever bought any plants in my life time.

What more can you tell a person who is drinking this stuff? I actually put this on the shelf whilst my sister had her back to it, I quickly took a photo and wondered if it would fall off but it seemed to stay for about 10 minutes. Then I guess someone walked passed and it fell down, I was at the counter and could see it from where I was, I thought someone had taken it so quickly only to realise it had fallen. At that point a man and his partner were walking down the aisle, I thought he was going to wheel his trolley over it and flatten the seal, thankfully he saw it, picked it up and.......put it back on the shelf! Goodness! He didn't even really look at it, wouldn't you be quite curious seeing an envelope decorated like that with stamps? I know I would, I'd flip it over and look at both sides. Ladies make your men more curious about such things :).

The thing is though when this idea came to me, I had really wished that we had £1 notes instead of coins as I would have loved to have put a note in to each envelope and told that person to treat themselves because they deserved it. Sadly we don't and putting a £1 coin in would have made it too bulky but still imagine if I'd put a life changing amount of money in that envelope and this man just put it back on the shelf. I wish someone would give me a life changing amount of money, I'd continue doing projects to make peoples days!


Are you lucky enough to have a flowery garden at your end of the world? Unfortunately any bit of blooming the plants here wanted to do have been drowned by all the rain and blown away by high winds when there is no rain. Can't win either way really!

Yesterday I managed to leave 5 envelopes which felt so good and I didn't feel the least bit nervous because of it considering I was actually more in public with crowds etc... but I guess when its like that its not as obvious what people are doing.

The first one I left is in a photo booth as I thought this envelope fitted in so well with the square images. Its just a shame that decorating the postcard wouldn't work out the way I wanted and as you can see there is a cloudy effect where I made mistakes.

I finally bought some plastic wallets and I wish I thought of it earlier as it means I can keep more envelopes in my bag without them getting crushed or falling to bits.

When I left the booth there was a lady outside, she probably wondered what I was doing as the curtains weren't long enough for people to think I was sat in there having my photo taken. So I think she may have taken it.

I'm running out of ideas of where to leave more now,

Have you any suggestions?
