Welcome to 2023

So it may have taken us two months to get back into the swing of things but we are now running full speed ahead starting with this email! 🚀

So we are not really sure where the first seven weeks of 2023 went (maybe they’re hiding under the couch) but I hope you all had a fabulous time!

If you are new to our mailing list or have completely forgotten (I mean 7 weeks is a long time) let me introduce ourselves. My name is Cass and together with my husband Simon and twins Jo and Phe we make up the 8elbows team.
These Eight Elbows with the help of an enthusiastic dinosaur named Vegetables (and some excessively positive Pear Babies) we create:

• Envelope of Awesome (a monthly pack of drawing activities for kids)

• A super fun Animated Story Time YouTube channel

• And we chronicle the crazy rollercoaster that is our lives through daily videos on our 8elbows Adventures YouTube channel.

We are also working on a new Sticker subscription and if that’s not enough you can find us on the copious amounts of social media platforms!

Four of our elbows have entered into the double digits and turned 10 on Valentine’s day! What better way to celebrate than to pretend to be a crab on the beach!

8elbows Adventures

We may not have sent out our newsletter for some time but what we have been doing is making lots of terrible videos and even some not-so-terrible ones…

Envelope of Awesome

Creating March’s Envelope of Awesome has been particularly fun for Cass this month! Does anyone else have a slightly unhealthy obsession with stationery? ✏

Positivity Pear babies

The Positivity Pear Babies have also been taking a little vacation and have been spotted mostly napping. But we are happy to report they will be back next week providing us with our mini-dose of positivity and rainbows every day on Instagram! @envelopeofawesome.

8elbows Storytime

We are currently in the production stage of our next Storytime Animation.

All I can say is if you are a Harry Potter fan you are going to love it! If you are not a Harry Potter fan I’m not sure we can be friends anymore but I’m sure you will love to hate it and we will take all the love we can get! 💜❤💛💙💚🖤

If you made it to the end of this email you should give yourself a pat on the back, a lollipop and remember to be kind, be curious and stay awesome!

Cassie, Simon, Jo and Phe

PS - What house are you in?
