Suggestion for a Declaration of Independence

What a SURPRISE! Before his trip to the U.S., Dean still managed to send me an -as ever- special mail-art using a "real" -oh yes, you shocked bibliophiles!- a real book cover, referring to his pragmatic philosophy: some books are better off in Mail Art than sitting on a shelf! And yes, I don't know which wisdom was protected by this beautiful red cover, but its new coverings are wise AND funny! And I will try, of course, to live according to them!!!…

Erni's Mummy says: All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go ...

All my bags are packed I'm ready to go

I'm standin' here outside your door

I hate to wake you up to say goodbye

But the dawn is breakin' it's early morn

The taxi's waitin' he's blowin' his horn

The adventures of Erni's Mummy begins. …

Blogjam--K.S. Chambers, Richard Canard, Amy Morton (not in that order--in Kaos)

Received the most amazing pieces from Amy Morton. This 'bug' inkblot idea is ingenious. She tells me to try it, but there is no way I could draw something this cool. The Keep Calm postcard is from K.S. Chambers and couldn't have come at a better time. I was very stressed at the time and lavished in this mail art moment. Next is ANOTHER piece from K.S. Chambers. I don't know how…
