For starters, this beautiful combination of stitchery and paint... and then... (honestly, drum roll is required)

Do bigger scanners exist? I don't have one anyway, so this isn't the whole quilt, but it is such a lovely thing. Organised and random at the…

Hopeless no doubt.  So you ask, what does this Mail Art have…

Thank you all for the great mail!

He is the mastermind behind the Clock Lovers' mail art sending for Feb. 29!

I spotted the Greek "ΦΕΒΡΟΥΑΡΙΟΣ" on his very clever: IX and XX TIME!

This clock is on the envelope with sooooo many languages!

I followed…

Yes, we had to wait patiently for Feb. 29, to open Clock Lover's mail art, time-it-right :-)

and Heleen's is well worth the wait, in a hand-made envelope with Monkey business:…

And now from Paris, it arrived "naked" as always :-)

but I placed it under Finnbadger's envelope so as not to "see" it until today:…

So I obeyed the instructins and opened today...

And LEAP LEAP LEAP - it's time to celebrate February 29th 2016. Thank you Katerina - enjoy your day!

Will you be leaping…

Bar Cat for 29 February, why not?  I don't think it's the only Barcodes we'll see on the 29th of February.  There're taking over.  RUN for YOUR LIVES!

OH dear, Late nights & early mornings, I'm making the most of my extra…

I have been waiting for this moment.  So at the stroke of Midnight I started opening the 29th of February Mail Art of the Clock Group. Here Katerina puts the…

It only is possible every 4 years; sending out mail-art on February 29th.

So don't put mail in the mailbox today, but tomorrow. We will see if the postal system brings us tyraces of the special day.

I know some mail-artists will ask for hand cancelled mail at the postal office. I rather like to see what the automized system will…

Meeah Williams continues to amaze. Up top is her envelope. Ghostly landscape and Eyeball Guy. And then inside was:

this cool book...as well as……

Here's a close up in case anyone recognises the writing.

Thank you Keith, or should I say Mr…

To be honest, it makes me so stressed to post a scan or photo of the art that you all send me. This does not in any way indicate that I don't appreciate the art. Because I love it. So much. This community makes me so happy, and I adore being a part of it. However, in the future I think I'll cherish the art en seule and that way have more time to create and less time spent on trying to keep up with the amount of art I've been sent. Hopefully, everyone is alright with this. If anyone has a…
