Of course, Sims have mail. They get bills and love letters. They can even write a love letter. But I wanted a little something more. So I created this little set of letters and envelopes for your sims and I'm releasing these as a Happy Early Birthday to Me gift since I want to release the end of generation 2 on that day.
These are MY MESHES! That's right I actually meshed something. A squished box. lol. Except for the folded letter which made me want to pull my hair out because I'm a NOOB.
Except for the first preset, they all come with 3 channels. The front, the back, and the ink. They also have 4 presets for your inspiration.
The stamps on the envelopes are STENCILS, so they are not recolorable. Sorry. Also, the pretty viney flowers on the pink preset are a stencil so it is also not recolorable. Finally, the Kiss on the back of the one envelope is a stencil and not recolorable. Sorry.
I also needed the unfolded letter as an accessory, as well as the envelope, so they are available as accessories for pose makers. There is a version for kids, and a version for teen-elder for pose makers out there. Maybe I'll have some poses ready for them later on. =D
Standard TOU applies- Don't upload anywhere else. Don't claim as your own. Don't change the presets and claim as your own or reupload. If you want others to know about them, link back please.

And if you make poses using any of my accessories and let me know I will gladly link to your poses using them, or even just to the pictures of your sims using them on my blog also!

Woot! You did such a nice job on these, I'm excited to see this finished project <3
ReplyDeleteAw! Thank you! Maybe I'll attempt something harder next time. Like not a box. lol. I'm really happy they're all finished too. <3 *hugs!
DeleteWow, these are great! I love that you included presets AND made them recolorable. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteHey! I love recolorable! CAS is wonderful and should be used. Often. lol. And sometimes? A preset can make a big difference. So thank you! =D *hugs!
DeleteThese are really nice! I have memories of writing to my ex-boyfriend while he was in bootcamp; while he was a douche, getting/sending letters was nice. ^^;;
ReplyDeleteAnyhoo, fantastic work! I might have to use these soon.
Hey! I had an ex-husband who I traded letters with while he was in bootcamp too! And he was Also a douche! Woooo? lol. Snail mail is awesome isn't it?
DeleteYay! I hope they pop up in your story. When I noticed you'd used a few of my poses in your past chapter I grinned like a goon. Ha!
I never had a penpal. These are useless to me.
ReplyDeletelol kidding!!! Love these love you!!
And I'll make some poses for these tomorrow because you need to showcase these!!! Ugh!!! Silly girl.
Oh no! You never had a penpal? Are you That much younger than I am? oh that makes me sad. Penpals were awesome.
DeleteWoot! Yay! I'd love to see them!
idk, it could well be that we maybe don't do it in the UK? I never had an email pal either, if it helps?
Deletelol. Oh, they quit advertising for penpal sign ups when I was in middle school. International penpals were even offered on the list for those wanting to practice languages. For a little while, I had a penpal in India. Because he was learning English, not that I speak Hindi. lol
DeleteThese look so good! I can't wait to use them! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I hope you enjoy using them!
DeleteI've written soooo many letters in my life it's ridiculous. Sadly I don't do it anymore, but my best friend and I used to write to each other every time we were away for more than 4 days. I have a whole box - not like a shoe box but a moving box - full of her letters, from high school to recent years. And another full of letters from other people, including my first big love who was a sailor and was away at sea for 3 months at a time. Those letters still make me a little bleary eyed. They were written on napkins and all sorts of papers he had lying around.
ReplyDeleteAnyhow! These props are great, and I think it's really sweet how you and Gemma are working together with poses.
Letters are So wonderful! And what a wonderful way to remember the past. Kids have no idea what they're missing out on. I've not kept that many, but I do have a handful from high school on in my cedar chest to read and remember.
DeleteThank you! =D
The accessories are just what I needed for a planned story scene. Thank you so much
ReplyDeleteShakespearesSunshyne, Thank you for your accessories you have provided. I have used a few over the years for my poses at posesbybee. I would like to ask if I could take this letter accessory and just alter the placement in the hand so poses could be created without the arm being far out and the wrist twisted. I can check back here for a response or you can contact me at posesbybee. There you will find a place to respond or my email to discuss it. Bee/Jesse
ReplyDeleteOmg. Please, please PLEEEAAASSEE fix it! Really seriously. Go for it. It's been bugging me that the positioning was so wonky and it's out there broken. And i can't fix it. I had moved all the original files onto an external drive that has been at the repair shop for almost 6 months now. Your work on it will help a twitchy eye loads! If you'd like to share your fixed version, please just give credit for the mesh.
DeleteThank you so much for asking!
Thank you for being so kind. I will let you know when it is done!
