i'm putting it on my sticky-tack-todo-wall as i write this (or immediately after)!!
Enjoying your "on-the-road" 365-art through Ohio, Indiana...you went to ATHENS! Great cards, Mim! And many thanks for this beautiful watercolor that arrived in today's mail! It "feels" like French fields and landscape! Lovely!
Checked out your blog today, it is always so nice to see what you are up to.
Great bird-with-a-word collages! Just three or four elements? Amazing!
Thanks for posting Peter's book...his name in Greek is Petros Nikoltsos ( I am NikoltSOU because it is the possessive case for the females.."we are owned by...")
The gal who is the author of the book is Soti Triantafillou (her last name is the Greek word for : "rose"..literal translation: 30-petals!)
It's MINE! That "ATHENS" card was sent to moi? Yes! Came in today's mail...Monday is a GREAT Mail Art Day! Thank you so much, sweetie...it brought sunshine on a cold, drizzly May day. And it sits on my display easel, along with Chuck's card! Love ya both!
Gracias por visitar mi blog y dejar un comentario. Sera un placer enviarle una postal impresa de Madame x. El original ya lo envie, fue echa en un sobre.
Thanks Mim, looks like a great kit, I may have to add a few things to mine. Liked hearing about your travel adventures, sounded like you had a wonderful time.
Thanks will try and post mine tomorrow. I'm flying so I will have to pack my scissor. Short trip so I will scan and post my mail art when I get back. Tried to send this message as you did but it would not let me for some reason. Frustrating.

Hi MIm. I recieved your Picnic Time postcard today. It is so much fun, i like it a lot.
It remains me of a fresh summer day in the patio. My cards will be post tomorrow and one is for you with Madame X. I hope she arrives on Friday at your mailbox. Have a wonderful creative week.
i lost track of where you posted your art-to-go kit!
i'm looking to put together something simple for the K teacher as a goodbye.
i remember seeing some FLUXboxes on a blog somewhere, with stickers and stamps and whatnot, i can put in some tape and a pen. anything else essential & cheap that i'm missing?
Me got a "tape" card! Love it, love it! Mim, you are doing an amazing series of mail art with those colorful tapes. "Beyond Don't"? Hmmm, I will have to post this for consideration at Minimal and Asemic...see if the experts can understand it ;-)
Thank you so much, (will blog it at the main page)xx
There has been a misunderstanding about the Katrina papier mache statue picture ii sent you. The statue was not made by me. I took a picture of it at the museum when i visited the exhibition. Hope you can fix this at the page. Thanks.
Hello Mim :-) - the comment I posted in the format discussion - I hope it makes it clearer?
A4 paper is standard size computer paper - 30cm x 21cm. This is folded in half -which yes, gives you 8 sides. How you choose to fill those sides - up to you. Each of your sections form a new chapter in the book. Should you wish to cover the WHOLE area, PART of the area - up to you. The work is YOURS. Is this any clearer? :-) ??
This is the message that I am sending to all new IUOMA members in 'my month of June.'
Dear Mim ,
Welcome to IUOMA!
It's a great bunch of folks and I hope that you enjoy exchanging Mail Art with us. I'm your Mentor, and if I can help to ease you into IUOMA in any way, then please don't hesitate to ask and I'll try to explain what's going on and how IUOMA works.
Would you like to exchange some Mail Art with me? If so, send me something to 1 Rue de la Vieille Fontaine, F-11130 Sigean, France, and I PROMISE to send you something back.
Hoping you enjoy your IUOMA days.
Regards, Val Herman
I've sent it out to about 14 people so far, and heard from about 6 of them. it all seems to be going well.
Mim, your wonderful letter and surprise-filled packet arrived before I leave tomorrow. I will be taking the "MIMimal" elements in the small brown envelope with me...you can be sure that you will be getting something from Athens!
What great goodies! Many thanks...and 'love that tape with Eiffel Tower!!!
hi Mim! Please urge Dean to becaome a SMARTperson. His special type of wackiness would go dfown a bomb with the Calendar SIS & BROS and an interchange between him and superhero would be fascinating to follow.
Bonsoir mim! Thanks for the nice collage card of Teddy R's door. You must tell me -- did she read the letter, and , if so, what did it say?
I'm going to the UK on 3rd July for 10 days or so, and have a lot to do before then, including sending you something back. Hope your summer is going well; Regards, Hilton&Val
