    Received my August PC last week - August here in Brisbane is chilly & windy - we have our State Fair (called the Ekka - short for Exhibition) on in August & if you go, you are sure to come home with a cold. Love the card.

    Hi Mary, received your postcard yesterday...

    the images I use are original magazine photos, some clipart, and paper...I use a tape transfer method to get a kind of ghost image...the crane was drawn on tissue paper and added last.  The original was sent to Germany; the one I sent you was a photo postcard copy...each piece I send out has a folder on my computer for each artist; that way I keep track of what I receive and what I send. Also, each artist has a section in a binder for the originals I receive...

    No, I don't submit to any publications; I enjoy IOUMA, no deadlines!!!

    Glad you like "crane"...and thank you again for the postcard...  *!*

  • Amy Irwen

    Great...looking forward to hearing from you!

    Hey Mary, Thanks for checking in. I have fallen off the mail art band wagon this summer, I've had lots of company. Hope to get back at it this fall. My 365 is done but I still have some of it to send out, yikes... I may have to be like Mim and reup and do 365.2!!! Hope you are having a great summer.  Missing all my mail art friends, Laura
