My health is much better now, but I still really appreciate these thoughtful ATC's. The single at the top is one Judy made just for me! and the trio jam was started by Lynnda Cook and added to by Judy. I love the slogan "minor surgery is an operation performed on somebody else." Thanks Judy and…

Jon Foster's Wonderful Gift

Can you guess what the picture with the Little Debbie and the Dads Root Beer really is? Post your guesses here and I'll tell you next week if anyone got it! Thanks, Jon! BTW I was going to post a scan of the other piece that came with this but it seemed too "fragile." Wink…

Live Ed!

Ed Giecek is so generous with his mail art -- the envelope is always decorated to the MAX, and inside are stickers, ATC's, A&P's, and wonderful surprises. Thanks Ed.

Terry Owenby's Add & Pass Paint Boekie

I'm going to have fun with this. Although I'm definitely not a painter, I can use a rattle can with the best of 'em. This is a good-size boekie, probably 4 or 5 inches square. Thanks…

David Stanley Aponte's Hand-Painted Postcard

I really love the textural quality of this paint. The scenes behind the paint have a wonderful industrial feel to them, and the stripes evoke the American flag -- lots of symbols here if you want to look at it that way, or just beauty to enjoy.…

Triple Jam ATC's by Fleur, Erin Young, and me

I love these ATC's. They are on super heavy card stock, thick with layers of paint, paper, and glue. Great texture. I just added a bit of poetry.

Gail Anderson's New Day Mail Art

The top piece is a wonderful, whimsical look at the new choices possible, right out in the open and under the sun. The bottom left is a card made from an old polaroid--looks like maybe a row of bus station or train station seats, very noir. And the happy Hello from Texas with the "Muleshoe" label from a pumpkin. And all this came in the same envelope Gail and I have been…

Blog Jam--Lynn Radford, Vikki Johnson, and Suzanne Jarvis

These three great cards, all "naked" -- Lynn Radford's "Magic Elixir" the perfect antidote for these times, and Vikki Johnson's "A Squirrel's Life" (with partying crow) looks like he is indulging in that very elixir, maybe too much of it! Below them is Suzanne Jarvis's "Whatever," an altered PC. When you look closely at it you can see that the elegant lady is posed against a…

Big Shiny Card from Debra Mulnick

Debra knows I like shiny things! You can't see it from the photo, but this card is made of colorful foil. Really pretty. And the other side is even better....

Back side has great hand-carved stamps, "Fluxus" ephemera, beautiful postage and eyes, eyes, eyes.…

JAD Media Bits and Sheri Rice fell into my mailbox today!

Two beautiful naked postcards, the top from J.A.D. Media Bits. He doesn't say where this photo was taken, I'm guessing San Francisco where he lives because it looks hilly. And Sheri's card is so lovely and peaceful. Thanks so much, both of you!
