Gift Personalized Linocut Stamp from a Co-Worker

[Thom Courcelle]

I recently showed a new co-worker of mine some of my outgoing mail art before placing it in the mailbox, and she was quite impressed--we might have a new convert! She was so impressed that she decided to make me a present and brought it in the very next day! It was a hand-made linocut print stamp designed specifically for me--what a hoot! The stamp is supposed to be a representation of a meteor-shower of "fabulousness" that includes a meteor-meatball down in the corner, but tumbling down behind it are stars, hearts, butterflies, unicorns (!), and rainbows! LOL! My name is also carved into the corner of the stamp (and it is spelled in the right direction!! whooO-HOoo!). I am a little overwhelmed by the sentiment and generous hand-made gift! You can be sure that it will show up on some of my future mail art envelopes, and you can thank my talented co-worker, Halie, for such a cute treat! She's quite an artist!
