A Week of Mail Going Out

Back in business -- the effects of the flu are long gone and I have been hitting the work table every day this week.
Really having fun with the process and getting lots of mail art sent out.
Can you tell?

The piles have been growing -- but all the better to tear, arrange and glue! Right?

An early batch of collaged postcards this week....I'm on a roll....a French roll....whatever that is...

OUTGOING to Mim
(I hope she already got this)
Vellum envelope with some vintage French inside!)
Bisous mon amie.

OUTGOING to Millicent
(Hope she already got this one too) A comic handmade envelope to cheer her up after two no-mail days. No mail -- no fun.


OUTGOING to the Fearless Mailer KSP
I got a bit carried away sticking stamps on that envelope and I may have put extra (ahem) postage..
Oh well...support the USPS, right?

OUTGOING
Some crabby envelopes....

OUTGOING
for my lovely friend SW who likes transit....

OUTGOING
More collaged photo cards going out...

And the French....OhLaLa.....love that woman in the center. Saucy!

Since green is my favorite color, other than black and (more black) I had to make a St Patrick's day card edition....
and Guinness is Good For You....you knew that, right?

OUTGOING

Top O the Morning to all of you and have fun on Sunday. Make some green mail.

Passover collaged card.....for SB....
LOST AND FOUND MAIL
Now here is a story to warm a postal lovers heart. My pal in France sent me two envelopes, mailed on the same day. One came very quickly and the other (this one) seemed to be lost in transit.
It just showed up yesterday and it seems my friend did not put any HOUSE number in the address.
And my street is a very long city street.
But someone at the PO tracked me down and wrote in the house number and viola --
here's the envelope.
Isn't that cool?

I am sorry for all the bad things I said about the Postal Service while the envelope was missing.


Some great incoming mail arrived this week too but that is a story for another day.


Packing the mail art kit and will be sending postcards from the road.
