Caly DePalma

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.

If you haven't already done so, I suggest you take a look at the 'New to IOUMA' page (4th from the left at the top of the IUOMA home page) where you'll find a 10-point Introductory Guide that should give you an insight as to what is going on.

Would you like to exchange some Mail Art with me? If so, send me something to me: 2422 Floyd Ave, Richmond, VA 23220, USA,  and I PROMISE to send you something back.
 
Hoping you enjoy your IUOMA days.

Here is a Health & Safety Warning: IUOMA and Mail Art can be seriously addictive.

Proceed at your own risk!   Regards, Mim

Hello Caly! Welcome! :)

Love love love the fortune cookie! Wu Wei is one of my mottos and it has worked well for me - except when I forget to do it, I mean NOT do it. I will keep in mind that you are a person who likes all things Chinese. Best to you.

Thanks Caly. She is my baby and turn 8 yrs old.  She's a golden retriever. She also needs to be on a diet...lol

Earthling, this is the last but certainly not the least welcome message to IUOMA you receive. I’m a celestial mail artist living in a heavenly corner of the faraway universe called Republik van Patland. When you joined IUOMA on July 5  I was unable to welcome you on board.  At the time I was in a celestial journey far beyond the Milky Way. Now, back to planet Earth, I´d love to be the other end when you decide it’s the right time to start trading snail mail art. If this is the case at the time your envelope should read as follows:

The Celestial Scribe

Terrene Embassy

The Celestial Republik van Patland

Caixa Postal 24827

Curitiba-PR

80510-970

Brazil

II look forward to see a piece of yours in our terrene mailbox. I will do my homework after receiving yours. This is a celestial promise. I’m Patricio, Celestial Scribe & Republik van Patland official envelope provider.

Hi Caly, I DID get your mail art.  THANK YOU.  I have posted it here: http://memoriesaremadeofthismailart.blogspot.com/2013/07/caly-d-fro...

I tend not to comment on my memories.  Those get shown in the pop up shows.

Yours arrived in that space between finishing off in England and traveling to America for my annual family meet up.  I couldn't fit scanning and posting in before I left so I carried it with me, not even sure if it would take me over the limit at the airport scales!

I post everything I receive at one of my two blogs and when I have time I link them here and put up photos, but you can imagine how life can take over. .. days are pretty crowded!

I will send you something back sometime.  I copied down addresses of some of the new people I've received from before I left - not everyone is on IUOMA  and when something I make feels like it belongs in their mailbox, they'll get something. I have my regulars, like everyone!

See you in the mail.

Vieni a far pate dei miei gruppi?  un caro abbraccio , bruno

Welcome to IUOMA Caly!!!!! I am new too and I enjoy so much with the mail arts.

Mail art trade?  Yesssss! I´m ready when you are!

Caly: I received an artwork from someone under the AKA name of "Gin!" from Knoxwille, TN  who isn´t listed in the IUOMA members list.  It´s a woman.  Dou you know her?

Thanks Caly.  I would like to tell Gin that I received her artwork but since her name is not listed in IUOMA I can´t.  That´s the whole story.  Any idea on how to contact her? 

Caly: what do you mean by  "Sent you a message. 8-)"?

Your wonderful macro-nature photo card arrived yesterday...thanks so much.  And coincidentally, I just popped one in the mail to you! -Jim.

I am glad you liked it! I thought it would be a perfect mail art piece for you! Congrats!

 The gap  Knoxville-Curitiba is being bridged beautifully.  Your brick is "celestial".   It´s time for this scribe to keep a celestial promise made to you early this month.  I´ll keep you posted.  

A celestial brick to be used in the Knoxville-Curitiba bridge is in it´s way to the  Old Spanish Trl.  Keep me posted!
