Collage from Svenja Wahl

I got this great collage from Svenja today!  I added the Magnavox television on the left and the Chinese fortune cookie message under the stamp that Svenja had placed on the card. The fortune cookie messages I keep in a bowl to be used for different collages that I make. When I want to use one, I choose it at random as I did in this instance. Fate decided that…

Vintage mail art and memories of my youth, from Alicia Starr

 

Alicia sent very unusual and vintage mail art that stirred all kinds of memories of my younger days in Illinois.
