And if you have a penchant for disobeying…

Here it is mail art from Lady L I received a while ago. I finally return mail to her. (^_^)

I like the color of the postcard and butterfly. 

Many thanks to Mim for being the first to put mail art in my box.

I really appreciate how welcoming everyone has been, I have a set of cards I will finish and begin sending out today.
