Yes Katerina I shall 'be' there too.

Thank you Naterina for the birthday wishes. I really like typewriters and I think they have a great past. I will send you something in the mail soon, I believe. Belief is an important step in taking action.

The lovely decoration is hanging up already, and then when the rush has passed it will go to the Gallery.Did you make the star? An important point if you didn't but found it the art work has strayed into the realms of Trashpo. Either way it is beautiful, thanks Katerina.

Katerina--you posted a ''thank you for a beautiful Snowflake card on 12/18/14 that is NOT from me. I wish it was, it is lovely. I think it is from Antonia Mayol, of Spain. I researched Espres Arte and her name shows up on a IUOMA posting.

Wishing you an art-full new year!

Thanks for the mail art. I've been busy reading the news. Today, I uploaded some songs in support of the Greek people. Here is a playlist.

Many thanks Katerina for the beautiful mail heart ! Arrived before Valentine day but I waited to open it only saturday :)

Katerina!

I am sooooo happy that the peeps have finally reached you. No rush in sending photos as you have months to allow them  to have many adventures in Greece. TIC TAC in Germany also emailed me a few days ago to say her peeps had arrived. Colin and I look forward to your photos and wish you many days of fun with them!

many thanks! and will send something to you soon!

Hi I will send back something too, but right now I am still sending back people from a few years back... Lynn inspired for the trash capsule so I am thinking to send her back first... 

Kat, thx for b'day greeting.
You have some v nice imagery posted.......nothing quite as unifying as airmail by seagull.  Typical Seattle image, but this one is miles high in front.  Whoops......this is not from Seattle, but should be.
'VOID' Newyear is from Seattle (and also blue) (and also v clever as is dying to live in fleuro).

Σ' ευχαριστώ πολύ Κατερίνα για τις ευχές σου!!!!

Thank you for your entry for my "Food and drink" mail art call, MomKat! It's wonderful, so colorful and eye-catching. 

I've photographed it and it's posted as "Entry #30" on the event's page here on IUOMA and on Facebook.

Cheers! --- Fleur

Thank you for the banana bunch (more bouquet than bunch by the way) received this week ! Blue and yellow... spring is on its way for sure! The quote from Anna banana gave me ideas for the next banana day ;) See you soon(er or later) on your mailbox Katerina !

Thank you, Dear Katerina, for the Happy Spring artwork!  It arrived on the most beautiful Spring day in New Orleans.  I have a silly thing to send you asap- I made it two months ago but still haven't sent it.  It will be there soon!
