The buddy jam is a fun idea and a real challenge as well!

I just finished the three-way jam that Amy sent. Here's what I received:

And here's the final result with my additions:

Amy also sent along another three-way ATC Buddy Jam, which was started by C.Z. Lovecraft. I'll be posting before and after pictures when I've had a chance to make my additions. More fun!

Thank you for posting these, Amy! 

I received your mail today, which contained the printed documentation and a keepsake card for me from that three-way Buddy Jam. A very nice collaboration!

I also enjoyed your artistamps and ATCs. As always, your work is beautiful and I'm glad to add these goodies to my mail art collection.

You're welcome, Dan, and I'm glad that you like them.

The purple flowers are Douglas irises and they're wild flowers that appear in the woodlands in the early spring. I love them and look forward to seeing them each year.

Oops...I reversed the captions and pictures on my post about Fleur's ATCs. But that should be obvious, I s'pect. THANKS Fleur!

It's always a treat to find an envelope from Fleur in my mailbox. I had high hopes about way might lie inside…

...and I was rewarded with two of Fleur's own brand of gorgeous unique and limited edition artist's trading cards. This one is a standard-size unique card that sports a beautifully printed photo of small (Muscari?) irises over and under a delicate collage of fine paper, dried leaf, and colored tissue.

This card is in a nice, somewhat larger format (about 3-3/4 x 5"), constructed with similar methods and materials. Fleur's craftsmanship and refined aesthetic make these cards a joy to hold and ponder.
