I love the idea of making something and immediately sending it away to someone, for free, for fun. I usually take a day or less to make my cards and it suits my short attention span. It's very gratifying to hear that someone was both surprised and pleased by their small gift. I also like the occasional collaboration with other mail artists.

Toni, Are you familiar with the Portland Correspondence Co-Op (PDXCC)? I belong to the San Francisco Correspondence Co-Op and we swap mail with each other. Both Portland and San Francisco chapters have monthly meetings. If you don't already attend or are aware, I can pass along the details. Let me know if you interested!! (^___________^)
Thank you for your comments,Toni. I am glad you like the poem and nice to know I am not the only one writing like this. You can see it fully illustrated in
Hi Toni, New guy here. Have always made my own note cards for correspondence but just recently have ventured out to things other than sticking my photography on a note card. I wish I was in Oregon, vacationed there three years ago and loved it. Arkansas is nice but...it is very conservative and red.
Hi Toni, thanks for the nice birthday congratulations! I really enjoyed it because I was hardly able to think about it! Thanks a lot! Best wishes from Charlotte from Germany
great to know it arrived intact! i had an altered postcard have everything i had altered it with fall off in the mail recently, so been a bit worried about some of the things i've been mailing. it's possible that the stamps i used on the card were of the taiwan president/vice president as well.
Thank you for the nice collage card! I received it last week. Sorry that I didn't respond sooner, but I have been crazy busy lately. It's the Christmas season. I have a card for you that I'll send out in a day or two. - Gail Anderson
Hey there! Thanks for letting me know my cigar box lid arrived, and with such a kind note.
Hope you are staying warm.....we are in our second week of a deep deep freeze and it's predicted to get even colder. Yikes!! Wishing you warmth in 2017! Happy New Year Toni. Debra
Thank you for the card with the Wonder Woman stamps! Very nice! I received it on Monday, sorry that I haven't contacted you before now. - Gail Anderson
Hi, Toni -- As far as setting up a studio time -- maybe. I would be interested in knowing about it.

Hi Toni, I usually work in 3-D so mail art is a new thing for me. I'm going to be using photography and writing/poetry, and I'd be interested to see what people back! My postcards should be sent out next week sometime. Are you interested?
Toni, I'm glad to hear that you received my "Mail Is Magic" card and like it! Sorry that I did not get back with you before now, but I've been crazy busy. My 16-year-old son is in the process of getting his driver's license, so I have to take him out to drive every morning. And my husband's truck is in the shop getting fixed, so our family is short a vehicle. When it rains, it pours!

Yes! Some of the trash can mosaics have glossy or sparkly bits, as well as beads and mirror tiles. They're wonderful, aren't they!
