| I get some of the BEST MAIL EVER and some of the best of the best is DORI SINGH MAIL |
 |
| It is too good not to share with with the world -- well, at least my blog readers -- her work should be in a mail art museum if you ask me. |
 |
| These are pages from an altered book Dori made me for my birthday last year.... |
 |
| Each and every page is delightful. And varied. And creative. |
 |
| But then, everything she sends me is the same -- beautiful and creative. Here's a tiny book with painted and stamped pages and an airmail envelope cover. |
 |
| Dori Singh Mail |
 |
| Inside the envelope was a wonderful sewn little folder with ephemera tucked inside.... |
 |
| Lots of hand painted and stamped tags show up too... |
 |
| And when Dori trades ATC"s with you, you get them tucked in a beautiful sewn folder..... |
 |
| Sacred ATC's by Dori Singh |
 |
| Dori went on a trip which included Prague and she found this magazine...and she brought home the cover and made it into a sweet little pouch for me.... who thinks of this? |
 |
| Pouch opened up....and of course, there were treats inside as well.. |
 |
| See? A Magazine cover...... |
 |
| And then there was a menu from Cafe Louvre (also in Prague) -- I suggested she go there for breakfast -- and she sewed me another folder from the large placemat on the table... |
 |
| Dori Sign Mail An inside-out security envelope -- rubber stamped and painted |
 |
| Another little booklet |
 |
| And another folder....Dori knows I could have a million of these and I would still want them... |
 |
| Folder opened up... |
 |
| Tiny Booklet |
 |
| And she still sends me more pages to add to that beautiful altered book she made me... |
 |
| Page added to Altered Book.... This isn't even all of the beautiful mail from Dori....Can you see why I am so happy every time I see something from her in my mailbox? Best. Mail. Ever. She really inspires me. It isn't easy to think up things to send her back in return ..... but I sure do try hard. That is one of the nice things about trading mail art -- the inspiration from looking at amazing works ..... THE MAIL BOX IS A MUSEUM That is a rubber stamp I have -- and it's so true! Hope you all enjoy the wonderful Dori Singh mail -- and many thanks to you, Dori, for making me and my mail box so happy. |
