Check your mailbox :)

Ink Pals is a monthly snail mail club that sends personal letters and interactive tattoo art to your door. Hand crafted by the studio crew at Mama Tried - Tattoo Smith!

You might be tired of notifications, scrolling and flags for your attention. Feeling like everything is moving too fast and none of it is real.

We do the opposite of that. Hand drawn art, letters long thought on, an opportunity for you to join in the art making and then send it to a friend! A letter in your mailbox filled with things to help you slow down and enjoy the moment you're in. :)

The tattoo artists at Mama Tried have been making tattoos in Saskatoon for over 10 years! And art for much longer. Ink Pals is how they can connect and share their stories and art with you, and how you can share it with a pen pal.

What's in the envelope?

Every month, a fat little envelope shows up in your mailbox with:

  • A personal letter from a studio member

  • An original art print and postcard hand designed just for Ink Pals

  • A version of the art to colour in yourself!

  • A story/note from the artist

  • Stickers :)

  • A curated playlist to immerse yourself in the experience

  • A journal prompt or pen pal subject

$15 a month

(a little magic to your door for the price of 3 coffees - or 2 if you go you like them fancy :)

Made by hand, sent with care, from us to you <3

The first 35 sign ups get this price for life ::))
