Watch the birdie! ..or birdie, watch out!

Well, if it is "all about the envelope", check it out:

It doesn't happen that often, but last night was a pizza celebration.  A real treat where the dinner is a take away pizza.  There is a clear plastic folder with all the pizza brochures in the kitchen.  And guess what I found inside one of the pizza brochures?   Ploink! Is…

and Angela Behrendt sent this card...

At first glance, this masterpiece looks like a house of cards, but only technically.

Actually the card is very sturdy and it even has a…

This cute card came today from a Rebecca...a RAK perhaps?

The whole thing is just incredibly charming and I love the photos of the people inside.…

I'm so glad -- so many are completely irradiated these days....…

I received a beautiful envelope with two Linda French ATC's. The one on the left is called "Landscapes Seascapes Dreamscapes" and the one on the right is "Martha and I Were Never Really That Close" because it's made out of a bit of packaging from a Martha Stewart scoring board.

Another great mini-poem PC from Richard, plus an Richard C. erasure and an envelope with a self-portrait (?).…

Lovely collage from Gail -- not sure what's launching, but I'd bet on the flower! And I love the envelope!…
