June 20th UPDATE: Sorry that I made a typpo mistake on my email address in this post for the past few weeks. Many thanks to Ana for correcting me. So if you send me an email and got no response, please do send it again at write2five[at]gmail[dot]com. A million sorry.
Introduction: Envie Adoption Programme is specially designed for anyone who want some free envies made from Hong Kong magazine pages.
Aim: The graphic and design in Hong Kong magazine is too pretty to toss away. In order to give them a second chance to live, I will turn them into envelopes. And send them to the kind people around the world. The aim of this programme is let the magazine envies to see the world. Also, they deserve a chance to be seen!
Quality of the envie: They are magazine pages after all. Soft and fragile. A piece of unwanted flyers/A4-size papar is sticked inside the magazine envie in order to support and strengthen the magazine envie. They are strong. They can travel long distance.
Graphic/Design of the envies: Mostly drawings or pictures from local artist. But sometime there will be photos of delicious dishes or travel destination. No, never, no advertisement.
Size: Around 3.5' X 5'. It depends on the size of the magazine pages.
How to Join? Send me email at write2five[at]gmail[dot]com with your postal address and please state "Envie Adoption Programme" in the subject line. Through the delicate care of the postman in Hong Kong and your area, 5 envies will arrive in your mail box. As simple as that.
Deadline? No. No deadline yet. It will run forever, I guess. Given the circumstance that this is not a popular blog and I am guessing there won't be a lot of requests. So, I am guessing this will last forever. =p
Repeat customer is welcome.

You are doing such a kind and generous thing here! I would also love to send you some envelopes, if you were to ever send me some! Make it more fun that way. :)
I sent you an e-mail the first time but I didn't get a reply, did you get it? I saw the envies again on Faiza's blog and they look so gorgeous, I can't wait to get some :) It's such a wonderful thing you're doing.
