Is that copper foil on the postcards from James Chester?

It is copper foil, Susan!  It is straight-edged and if I carefully peel it away, it is sticky just like washi tape. So I assume that James found this thin sheet metallic tape in some secret specialty shop, and completely edged the piece with it. I have never seen a product like it, but the effect its stunning!

Lovely¡ with Broc - Mimicry and his very nice card. (Thanks a lot):

I recognize the copper tape--It's used in stained glass to edge pieces so the solder will stick... I used to work for a stained glass artist... long ago... my job was to sit and wrap pieces with this type of tape! :)

Nicely executed flower and leaf rubber stamp postcard from KiKi in Japan

A fun postcard made from cardboard with Cavellini/DADA cow and lovely collage on the backside, by the hand of Dr. Zack.

received Page of Coins Page-of-Pentacles and other mail art treats. Thank you Thom Courcelle for this wonderful surprise.

A great new postcard from Susan Gnaedinger - Thanks

And in return I'm sending a rubber stamp ( 2 reciprocal inpressions ) with added white acrylic paint.

Named :New Journey  -03"

Regarding the copper foil - try finding it in a stain glass supply store. It comes in different widths. It is used to wrap around the edge of the stain glass. Then, float solder on it and when two pieces of stained glass are so prepared they can be soldered together.

Received from Susan Gnaedinger today!  Thank you, Sue!
