Received your mailing. Looks like it took about 20 days. Worth waiting for!
People do like to joke about global warming in the winter here, but I'm aware that Australia acutely feels the effects.

Came across some bear prints while on a walk recently!
The bear obviously used this bridge that goes through a Spruce Tree Bog.

Hi Jill,
I sent you 2 mailings recently. One was this Halloween Window envelope. I wonder if it arrived or if it got destroyed in the mail? I have a mental picture of the mail machines clogged with the shiny pieces I enclosed. I did receive your mailing with the printmaking experiments. They are all lovely and I want to try to incorporate some of them into my collages in the future.
Thanks for the mail Jill. That Golden Spike stamp is really neat isn't it? It's a 55 cent stamp. I like the shiny gold foil. I'll be mailing a response soon.
Thanks Jill for the colorful ATCs. I received it a week ago but didn't have time until now to thank you. I have a few things ready to send to you soon.
Jill! I'm blown away by this beautiful catalog of work you sent. You are a very talented artist! Thanks you so much! Hugs, and I'll write soon! Bonniediva
I did a little side by side comparison of the weather this week. Sorry Jill, what you call "Winter" is not really Winter. ; ) They should call it "Cool Summer"
Glad you got the mailing I sent you. I sent another yesterday. I wanted to include the dreamcatcher I made (see photo above) but the postage required was too much.
I got your wonderful envelope full of stuff the other day. I think I got the better end of that deal. I liked the small watercolors. I went to the studio and pulled out a small print to send to you to give you a small finished work of art. Who knows when I will get around to sending it. Its amazing that I am letting folks now I got their mail
Thank you so much for your lovely letter and the delightful bird art. We were all rather amazed by the cat picture also included (which I love) as somehow you have done a portrait of our cat Cici! Here he is relaxing on his favourite bean bag...

The mail I received from you yesterday matches the Wisconsin Summer Foliage!

Hey Jill! Welcome to IUOMA! Let me know if you have any questions! I’d love to send you a deco to get you going. Hugs, Bonniediva
Framed the lovely Gum Tree drawing you sent me.

Thanks for the recent mail. Glad to hear from you!!! You should be getting a bright yellow envelope from me very soon. Cheers!

Hello Jill,
I received your mail today.
Your miniature art are wonderful! And so are your match box art!
I love the match box bookshelf especially but I love them all.
I read your letter. It was a good story about your Japanese friend. I may be younger than you but I can be your new Japanese friend.
I have many mail art in line that I did not return but eventually I will return something to you.
I did not make plan yet but I will make a book of all the match box that sent and also may show them some where like an alternative gallery.
sincerely,
Welcome to
International Union of Mail-Artists
