  1. Just when I think you can't top your mail art, you've outdone yourself with the Indian theme and the currency exchange bits! So fantastic.

    I can practically smell the satsumas. Must go to the Asian market and look for some; if I can't find them, then off to the Body Shop, because they smell so heavenly.

    What kind of paper did you use for Donovan's envelope? Is it newsprint that you just doubled up to make it thicker & stronger?

  7. Rainy Thursday, I'd rather be making envelopes (yours are fab') than 1) reconciling the check book and credit card 2) preparing for my upcoming trip, what to take? what to take? besides my Mail Art kit.
