Consume Laravel service from existing CodeIgniter app

I have the following issue:

I have an existing web app built with CodeIgniter, it works well. There are new features to be developed, some of them have to do with emails and notifications. I I have worked with Laravel, and its my framework of choice for new apps.

So, what I'm thinking is ... Maybe I could set a service with Laravel, that handle's email queues and notifications, maybe set up events, but how can a consume the service from CodeIgniter ?? That is the issue.

Additionally, is this an good approach ? Could it be done ? Any suggestions ?

Thanks. =)
