Erni Bar: Banana Magic

Erni sent me this very interesting banana holder.  I just couldn't wait to try it.  With a carrot of course.

And it worked.  I turned a carrot into a zucchini or courgette, it might even be a Cucumber.  I'm not sure, but it's green none-the-less.…

Willemien Visser: Mail Art Show in Paris, starring Ryosuke Cohen, but also Ray Johnson

     I'm not sure if Willemien intended this to be mail art or not.  In any case it got my attention and I went to see the expo for myself this morning.  Only it didn't open until noon so I had to waste some time on the Champs Elysées people watching.  Don't listen to what people say, it's a great city!

Mail Art or not, I think this is Willemien's way of saying,…

Susan McAllister: DEAN TOO

     Susan is now very keen to put her own titles on her Mail Art.  She knows that if she doesn't, I'll come up with some an absurd name for it.

     This time she nearly covered all of her bases, but still it could be seen as Dean squared, but that would go beyond any ones imagination.  So this one is called Dean 2 although I can still spell it wrong.

I…

Stripygoose Sue: N° 203 Whacky Duck

Whacky Whacky Whacky, and it made me laugh.  The eyes really make it work and loved envelope security pattern wings.   What is ever going to happen when N° 365 comes around?

Thank you Sue

The Blessed Father: Next to the Cock Fighting Palace or Tacos de Perro Arti Stamps

Very funny Arti Stamps from The Blessed Father.  Actually very serious work when you look closely.  And yes, I probably would invest in this restaurant although it might make Angie & Snooky a bit nervous.

The detail, too funny for words.…

Send to Snappy from London: One Knight on the toilet

Snappy tells me that this was received in Canada, but something was missing.   Yes, in France we have lots of jokes about English food.  I never thought there was any truth to them until now.

Next time, I'll be ready.

So Snappy, what…

Erni Bar: THE VANDALS TOOK THE HANDLE or Dust pan arrives in time for Spring cleaning

This metal, yes metal, dust pan arrived today.  However the handle was missing and the main message was covered up.  Ah but I know who it came from.  None other than the Hairy Wear Wolf, or something like that.  I'll have to look it up.

And here it is in all of its glory.  From the Haptic Werewolf himself. (I knew…

Nancy has out done herself this time.  It seems that these Boekie's are "a la mode" now.  What a treat.  18 pages of fun and joy.   Sorry I only showing a bit of a mix.  I'll try to add on later.

Carina Granlund: Sunset or Pollution and the treasure map envelope

Another hand painted piece from Carina.  Well the sunset or pollution part is hand painted.  The rest is a photograph from the 1960's.  I know because my Mom use to have that same orange dress.

  But wait, there is more.  It arrived in this treasure map envelope.  It looks like the treasure is buried on one of the Arcas Cays island.  I can't wait to find it.…

Erni Bar: In for a penny, in for a pound

Actually in Eurpoe that would be; In for a cent, in for a Euro.  But not this tme.  No, Erni walked right pass that Euro shop today, and went home and made an Erni classic.

 

OH Erni indeed.  Sorry that caution sign fell in there somehow.

Thank you Erni, the inner Erni is worth much more than an…

Mim Golub Scalin: Trouble in Tiny Town

     An excellent "altered" version of Maurice Utrillo's Street in Sannois.  The folks of Sannois woke up one Sunday morning to find this huge crate in the street. 

     They called me on Monday morning to ask if I would be interest in coming to Sannois to take the crate away and make Mail Art with it.

     Sure I said, so I picked it up, sent most of it to Suus in Mokum for a Banana project, and a leftover piece will be going out to Mim.  Problem…

Louise Kiner: Darwin meets Madonna

     Darwin meets Madonna and re-writes "The Origin of the Species". So here we go again, another Canadian picking fun at our poor Madonna. Heavens forbid if we say anything funny about Celine Dion. I bet the Canadians would start a war.

     I could see it now, Canadians united side by side at the border throwing jars…

XX Jones: Peak Mail

In the middle of Hong Kong there are peaks that no one else can see except for XX Jones.  And on the back it reads; "Said So!"

Thank you Mrs. Jones, but don't peak too soon.

Marie Wintzer: The Jar that came from Japan

So it stood in front of me like a Space Ship from Mars.  "What do I do now?", I asked myself.

You would expect Jam in a jar like this, but Marie takes it one step further.
