    i received your awesome mail art letter in the post today! and i am in love love love with your mini book format. LOVE IT! and your collage is fabulous! you have totally and completely inspired me to go mini book crazy... i'm in the process of creating one myself. as soon as it's done and printed, i'll be sure to send a copy your way. thanks again!

    oh ps. i'll be posting on my blog pics of your mail art offering, will let you know once it's up...
  • Jenn Grosso

    thanks marianne!

    actually i went a little coocoo today and just finished my first little mini book (for whatever reason i love calling them little mini books...). i hear you on the addictive part, i'm already daydreaming about more and more mini books! yipes! gonna go to my printing place tomorrow and print up a bunch... oh ya talk about rewarding!!! one will be making it's way to your mailbox soon!!!

    thanks a bunch (again), this zine/mini book thing is truly fabulous!
  • Jenn Grosso

    well i think creativity is an up and down thing for anyone/everyone... it's not very good advice, at least not for your wallet, but when i'm in a serious rut i go on a little shopping spree on some of my fav online art supply store and get some fun new toys to play with. which will 100% of the time get me in an art frenzy... or i get inspired by someone else's art... like your mini zine... i'll make sure to run to the mail box as soon as my mini book is printed and packaged for you! perhaps it will inspire you in return???
  • Jenn Grosso

    hi marianne! wow i'm so happy to hear that my postcard gives you good company! and soon my mini book will hopefully be too. it's all packaged up and will be visiting the post office tomorrow!!! yay! i've put together a fun little mail art package for you... i hope you enjoy!

    plus you've inspired me once again to create! i had a daydream today of creating a fun little mini book to spark creativity, almost like a treasure hunt/adventure for the uninspired/creatively stumped. like a treasure map towards creating something... how fabulous is that!!! i have an awesome weekend of creating ahead of me. and once it's done i'll be sure to send it along to you so it can keep you, my postcard and my first mini book company... tee hee! wow this is so much fun!!! and like you said addictive! you did warn me, ha ha ha!

    well have an awesome evening and i hope my mail surprise finds you soon!

    How nice, Marianne! My mailbox will eagerly be waiting...
    with a big smile, for your mail art to arrive!

  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    Thak you, Marianne, "meg"
    your beautiful card came in today's mail...lovely delicate figure:
    "lady of the roses"! Another mail art card came, too, but there
    is no return address or name on it. The plastic sleeve it was in was ripped. Now I don't know who to thank for it. Do you recognize whose it
    might be?

  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    Here I scanned the other sides. Thank you, again, for the nice art card, I really like it. Now to find out the mysterious other card!

  • Marianne Elson

    Hi Katerina, I'm glad you got my postcard. That was quicker than I thought it would be :) I don't recognize your other mysterious card. Very fun though! Maybe they will check your page and see it......hmmmm, very curious.
  • Jenn Grosso

    oh yikes indeed! i hope things are all sorted for you!

    yay so glade you enjoyed my "hearts", take good care marianne!
  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)
