Happy Mail is a monthly subscription from A Beautiful Mess. The gals behind this DIY and lifestyle blog are known for their cute, creative take on stationery, so I'm always excited to see what surprises are inside this envelope!

Pool Folded Card

A-beautiful-mess-happy-mail-march-2017-0020

Inside this bright print are the words, "Congrats on taking the plunge!" Now I have to think of the right person to use this card for... new house? new job?

Fries Folded Card

A-beautiful-mess-happy-mail-march-2017-0016

Inside, this card says, "Let's Ketchup." Fun! And the ketchup colored envelope is perfect.

WOWZA Card

This folded card is blank on the inside, and it seems like it could work for any type of congratulations need!

Thank You Flat Card

This might be my favorite card in the group. I love the overlapping colors and the pink envelope.

HI Postcard

Each Happy Mail box usually includes one postcard, too.

You've Moved Folded Card

A-beautiful-mess-happy-mail-march-2017-0014

Inside it says, "Don't worry, those boxes unpack themselves." I thought this card was a little weird. I'm used to the "We've moved," cards that let you know someone's new address, but this is the first card I've seen where you let someone know that you know they've moved!

(If this an actual thing and I've been a rude friend for not sending these cards all these years when my friends move, let me know!)

Miss You Folded Card

Another blank card with a subtle grey envelope - perfect for making it your own.

Happy Anniversary Card

This long card is blank inside and great for me. I need to do a better job at wishing people a happy anniversary!

Chin Up Flat Card

This card felt a little flimsy. Compared to the Thank You flat card above, it definitely is made with a lesser card stock.

Baby Flat Card

This card is blank on the back, and smaller than your typical card, so it will be perfect to put on the gift for the next baby shower I attend.

Make A Big Wish Card

This flat card is blank on the back. It's a sweet illustration, and birthday cards are always useful!

Top Shelf, Deluxe Stuff Print

In addition to cards, each box also comes with a 8 X 10 Art Print. This one is a simple shapes design.

And there are usually some other extras every month, too. Like these arrow stickers, and this craft punch:

Slim Blue Sparkle Washi Tape

A-beautiful-mess-happy-mail-march-2017-0022

Because of this item, I have learned that sparkle washi tape is the best kind of washi tape!

And lastly, we have some alpha/number stickers - perfect for adding a little personality to the envelopes.

Verdict: I love this subscription! I bought an annual subscription, so this box only cost me $15 - which works out to about $1 an item! I think that's a fabulous value, and these are all Happy Mail exclusives, so you can't buy them anywhere else!

What do you think of the March 2017 Happy Mail Box?
