| RED & WHITE & BLUE I know many folks out there are thinking of RED & GREEN but lately I've been on a red, white and blue kick. I don't know why but these things just happen sometimes. I've really been working on a lot of mail art the last few weeks, trying to catch up after having been away. Twice. After Turkey and Italy I went to LA. There's an LA post coming up too.... |
 |
| OUTGOING Having fun with vellum envelopes lately -- did you know vellum requires extra postage? Now I know too.... That bottom envelope has a coffee theme for a certain person with the initials M.W. who loves a good cup of coffee. Or two. |
 |
| OUTGOING Another vellum going out -- and a cheesy envelope for a certain cheese-lover I know. It's fun to customize envelopes to appeal to people's taste. I like postal-themed envelopes in case you wondered. |

| VINTAGE SUPPLIES I think I'll start with some red and green now....got out the vintage Xmas stuff..... |

 |
| I've been wrapping..... |
 |

 |
| Planning on standing in line at my favorite Post Office this week....maybe I'll bring some cookies.. for the postal clerks, not for me.. Actually, maybe I should bring some cookies to hand out to the usually grumpy folks waiting in line to spread a little cheer. And maybe they won't sigh too much when I get to the counter. Because I have a lot to send. |
 |
| INCOMING The "Send Mail to Get Mail" rule still stands. I got some great mail this week -- from Planet Susannia (see above) and fabulous artistamps from Jack at Cascadia Artpost and a tiny accordion booklet of photos of Turkey from a friend who also took a trip there.. |
 |
| LIKE MONEY IN THE BANK The more mail you deposit the more mail you are likely to get! |
 |
| Buddha's Hand infused vodka Another little project I am working on...you can't do mail art ALL the time, or can you? I know it is a crazy time of the year but have fun out there people! |
