Hi Carla,
I'm a newbie on IUOMA, so I'm going to ask you a really stupid question, but I need to know before I get started! Please define 'mailart' as it applies to IUOMA. Is the mailart what you do with the envelope you send or is it what's inside the envelope, or both? I just want to be sure I'm 'doing it right'! I don't want to let anyone down when I send out my art....please help! Thanks!

Hi there ... sorry, I have still got a half finished letter for you here ... must try harder.
The Asml project should be a good addition to my album project with lots of new oddities! I have had the first envelope arrive this morning so things are getting under way. My design is done and at the printers but he has been on holiday for a month and is now busy catching up on orders so it is fingers crossed whether I get them posted out by the due date..
Hope everything is well with you. I spent today at the private view of an exhibition I have conteributed to. will send you the compuutor address for their site so you can see what I have been up to. Thats all for now, B
Thanks so much for the warm welcome, Carla! I would love to exchange art with you! I look forward to receiving your beautiful creation and also becoming a part of this wonderful community of artists! :)

Hey, sweet cakes! What a coincidence: I just received you postcard (beautiful, I might add!) Thanks for both the card and the sentiments.
Yes indeedy. A friend gave me all these old cards the other day, as I collect just the weirdest. That girl scout card certainly had your name on it with that rabbit. Oh, for the days of the 50's.

Hi Karla:
Thank you for your warm welcome.
