Hello! My name is Cami, I’m 25 and live in Philadelphia! I’m picking up paper crafts/letter writing again as a hobby to limit time on my phone and exercise my creativity. I went to school for illustration and am currently back in school to become a teacher! I work with children full time as a babysitter and nanny, and my days are usually exhausting so I’m hoping this can be a relaxing hobby to help me wind down after work.

I love flower pressing, scrapbooking, and painting. I journal as well (bujo and junk journaling). I keep a sketchbook with me at all times and fill it with anything I find beautiful/inspiring.

I collect used postage stamps, monster high dolls, postcards, stickers, interesting stones/crystals, and coins! I have a shelf in my bedroom for all of my random trinkets that I collect as well.

Unique stickers || Pages from old books that I can use for crafting || Tea || Cute/Unique washi tape || Playlists/song recommendations || Buttons || Used seed packets || Pressed leaves and flowers || Fabric scraps || Postcards (Vintage/art postcards are strongly desired) || Anything Sanrio || Things from Japan/Japanese themed || Recipes (Check “Food” Section below) || Vintage paper scraps

Shipwrecks/The deep sea || Non-cartoon whales || Glitter || Childish/teacher stickers

Please do not intentionally send anything created using AI generated imagery. I understand that it’s getting harder to tell, and I will not hold it against anyone due to how advanced it’s getting, but as an illustrator AI is deeply upsetting to me.

My favourite candies are anything peach flavoured, and I’m not a fan of anything sour. The more variety of texture there is in food the more I’ll like it. I love to cook and if I’m sent a recipe I will likely cook it and send back a letter talking about how much I enjoyed it! My favourite tea is.....anything really! Flavoured, unflavoured, herbal, caffeinated - it’s all great. I grew up in South Africa though, so rooibos has a special place in my heart.

If you are interested in becoming penpals please dm me! I am especially looking for female (trans girls included) penpals over the age of 20. Any country is great!

I love anything Studio Ghibli! I’m also a fan of Winnie the Pooh, all of the characters hold a very strong sentimental value in my heart.
