Seasonal Mail Art

    On February 5th, I picked up my latest batch of mail art from the post office, and there were Seasonal Greetings from Katerina Nikoltsou! If I'm reading my Greek correctly, this card was made on November 15, 2020!

    I've seen other IUOMA members posting that the mail from Greece is very slow these days. I hope that we can all make some headway against this pandemic. 

    Anyway, here are some late autumn greetings with a get well wish, too. I am doing better, slowly recovering from my injuries. I can walk without a cane now and am looking forward to enjoying the warmer weather of spring.

    I like the back of the card, too. That is one scary-looking ship!

    Thank you, Katerina!

    'Tis the "season"!

    ...in February my mail art friends are finally getting my "Autumn" mail art. Maybe soon the Xmas "Holiday" seasonal mail art will arrive? 

    Well, here is the "heART mail art"...as it may not arrive any time soon, sigh :-( Happy Valentine's day!

    In yesterday's mail: mail from Katerina (MomKat)! A pair of lovely cards celebrating "New Year Time" and "Greek Winter Fruit."

  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    Aha! Even though it was sent in December, I am glad I put flowers and "pink" for the Spring Season! Ha!

    Happy to see it arrived finally, Fleur :-)

    more coming, but via Greek Post "snail mail" sigh.

  • Fleur Helsingor

    Flowers and pink are good any time!

    Have to be thankful that Greek mail art arrived in California and wasn't "Returned to Sender" by USPS, yay!

    Thank you, Fleur, TWO from you arrived here:

  • Fleur Helsingor

    I'm glad that the kitty arrived safely! I'm sorry that you've been having so many problems with the mail.

  • Fleur Helsingor

    I picked up my mail art at the post office yesterday, and one of the items was an envelope containing spring time greetings from Mail Art Martha!

    There was also a Foldie with lots of timely news and stories and a cartoon featuring Ali Khat and Vermina The Rat; a gorgeous second card that wouldn't scan or photograph well; and lots of artistamps. Thanks for all of these treasures, Martha!

  • Fleur Helsingor

    It's spring, and the flowers are blooming and the robins are singing! Here's a lovely card from Katerina Nikoltsou.

    The back of the card celebrates Banana Day --- which is a day that some mail artists celebrate --- and there are some colorful artistamps, too. Cheers!

  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    Happy to see that the Spring Season mail art arrived, Fleur!

    Now we are already in Summer Season here in Greece.

    Time to "take a break" and "chill" on the beach :-)

    More summer season greetings from Katerina, complete with confetti made with punched out pieces and a beautiful floral image.

  • Fleur Helsingor

    Since you're on summer break, Katerina, I'll hold off on sending a reply until later in the season. Enjoy your holiday!

  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    Summer Season TIME! 

    Thank you, Fleur, I'll be making and sending mail art from my seaside shack, but cannot get mail delivery here...so thank you for waiting until September to reply, time for you to enjoy just getting :-)

  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    So happy to see that a Valentine card that had been sent in January ...returned-to-sender back to Greece in April,

    sent again to California in April along with a "Spring" card,

    finally arrived in June! Yay!

    Happy Summer Solstice today, Fleur!
