Its called Washi tape. You can get it at most craft stores, Amazon, and Etsy.

I tend to use paper pads, or loose leaf over letter sets, mainly because there is only a few pieces of paper per envelope with sets.

I use the Envelope Punch Board from We R Memory Keepers. I picked it up at my local Micheals Arts and Crafts. For paper, I've used gift bags, wrapping paper, and scrapbook paper.

It is the month of Halloween, of darkness, despair, doom, and mischief. So get some matching stationary. I just stumbled across this today. Not sure on paper quality, but they look pretty cool, very thematic. Evil Supply Co.

I've seen examples of writing a letter like that, but never in person. Seems like it would be distracting to both read and write.

I prefer A5 for correspondence, but I will occasionally use A4/Letter sized paper for letter writing.

I was matched up with two LWA members recently. One from German, the other from the west coast, Washington maybe. I corresponded a few times with the girl from German, but haven't heard anything in a while, and I never got a response from the other match. I'll probably sign up for a few more again, hopefully this time they will stick around a bit more.

I've only been corresponding for the past year, so all my letters, once replied, are in a shoebox.

Murfie, I inherited a large stamp collection from my great-grandfather. I know I have some older Airmail stamps, but I'm sure there are others in the collection. Send me your address and I'll gladly send you a few.

I've found some nice ones at AC Moore, and Michaels in the US. But I've found the best ones on Etsy. Lots of people carving custom stamps, and some will carve anything you want.

Someone stopped writing to you because you didn't like sports and that meant you weren't man enough? Good riddance I say.

writingrav I've been using the 4.5x6 size for A5 papers folded in half. In the 2nd column, it's the 5 from the bottom, above the A-6 size. That will give you a rectangular envelope.
