yes, can do!

Happy to hear my banana arrived and you liked it, Toni. I enjoyed your banana mail as well. Thank you! :)

Thanks for the monkey art. And isn't Harper's work wonderful?

Glad to see that you received the collage I sent you and like it as well as the envelope.  I'm not sure who made the envelope. - Gail

Thank you for your feedback Toni! The first month or two of my 365 project, I was spending a lot of time on each card... as my home life spiraled into total disarray, I realized I couldn't keep up that pace! So, it's up and down. Sometimes I spend half an hour, sometimes several hours, and sadly I have had many days where I don't do one at all. Still committed to the 365, but now know it will take me longer than 12 months.

Me? A chessmaster? Haha...working on it. Going over databases of games from the past. Not sure what else to do with my life. trying to get the mail art machines going again and then I thought "Let me combine these two interests."

Thanks! Ciao

Bonjour Toni !

Je ne connais pas de mailartist en Dordogne.

Tu as choisi une très belle région à visiter (le Périgord ).N'oublie pas de d'aller à Sarlat-La Canedat ! (village médiéval et Renaissance, très pittoresque) plusieurs Galeries d'Art, et d'excellents restaurants! ( spécialités locales etc... Foie gras ! )

Hi Toni, thanks!  looking forward to seeing it eventually. So cool to send art out into the the world! Lynne

Hi Toni. Thank you so much for your cards, they are really beautiful. Such a lovely surprise! I admire the way you make your cards, I think they are amazing! And the envelope as well! The cat is my favorite animal, I just love cats! Grethe :)

glad to be of service! :)

Yes, the seal for the wax is custom made (BacktoZero - a Hong Kong company I discovered on Twitter) and is my hanko, Chinese characters for my name Ryusho 龍昇.  Mail when you are so moved and when the time is right and there is actually time to do so.

Very attractive pose.....

My week made extra special,thank you for your mail!

Hi Toni yes, skin tattoos as in temporary skin decoration---I found these at a bargain bin in a fabric store on Salt Spring island going out of biz, figured I could work them into MailArt!

Glad you like the stuff!

Thank you for the nice collage card with the Oklahoma map and the birds!  And I will keep the envelope in play as long as possible. - Gail Anderson

Happy it arrived.  If you blog it, i'll stick on a photo of what it looked like when it went into the mailbox.

Toni, I can't wait to see your creations in my circus book! Don't feel rushed to pass it on to the next person. I'm in no hurry. And of course I trust you! :-) I appreciate the fact that you were willing to work in the book. Thank you!

The rubber stamp is a new creation from the Acropolis Museum in Athens...

and the fun OWL book mark too :-) Glad the stamps and stuff arrived ok! xxx

Your circle stamps and goodies arrived in Greece, too,

Toni, thanks for your enthusiasm.  I have been feeling more creative as of late.  See you in the mail. 

Glad you liked the card, envelope and stamp. I rarely make this type of collage - I like how this group turned out. I don't know who the woman is, the picture is titled 'My Corsage' (1931), but about 15 minutes on google didn't help me track her name down.

Oh WOW! I love the ATC gifts <3 <3 Thank you for your sweetness to me. The cards are gorgeous and I LOVE the stamps! Sending you a big {{{HUG}}}

you're welcome toni! glad the add and pass made it back to you  and you're welcome for all the other stuff i sent along. it was probably stuff that was just sitting on my coffee table. :)

95 degrees, YIKES!!! I assume you'll have lots of ice cold beverages. Enjoy!

Thanks - on both accounts!

Hi Toni this is a very rare e mail.Sorry for not replying until now i hate computers  .I will send some art mail soon i tend to fall off the radar because of my job hope you are in this moment .Lester .

Sadly it isn't really very complicated, and there are no hidden secrets to protect.  It is a duo-monoprint (two monoprints one on the top of the other) using a Gelli plate.  The pattern is the pattern found on those plastic outdoor picnic holders for paper plates.  I simply pressed that into the ink spread on the Gelli plate thus removing that image from my ink which then creates the space for the bottom layer of paint to show through.  The woven texture of the card is from a purchased embossing folder which I then used on my emboss machine.  I am glad it's simplicity did not prevent it from being enjoyable.  

No problem at all, glad you like her :-) - Jade x

Heh heh.

Those all came from drawings I made. Originally the pink sluggo was staring into one of the little houses, kind of like an unwanted guest, somewhat ominous. The eyeball plants suggest a growing awareness. The guy busting up the pyramids by knocking off the tops (great all seeing eye, hierarchies) suggests populist revolt against the plutocracy and the establishment. Something along those lines.

Toni, thanks for the lovely envelope and card.  I haven't been getting much mail lately, so yours was much appreciated.  See you in the mail.

glad it all arrived toni and you dug it. i think those dots were given to me from res. i've been putting them to good use. :)

Glad that you like it, was fun to do and thought you would enjoy...best

thank you for the comment Tony, sorry for this late reply i'm having difficulties logging in iuoma lately..it takes ages and then nothing happens.i'm glad you enjoyed the happy cows...:-)

thank you Toni. occasionally it happens, maybe due to net maintenance, security or some network problems in ning depending on the areas, there was a similar problem in another ning i'm member. Ruud posted a note about it last week. today all is clear, like our weather at last a bit of sunshine in this rainy june...:-) 

...and thanks for loving my card to dean!

See you soon in the mailbox!

I would love to contribute to another little book! Please keep me in mind. 

Thank you for the welcome! :)

Thank you for your nice words about my page in the boekie. I don't even remember what it looked like now. My brain has been on overload for much too long. :-) But I'm glad you like it! I would love to work in another book....anytime. It's nice when one finds another person who has the same aesthetic. It's rare that I find that. Thanks again for the kind note. 

Toni, I don't know if I responded to your comments about my circus journal. If I didn't, please accept my apologies. It appears I've been missing many comments on my page. :-( Thanks for your nice words about the journal. I loved making the cover and one page. I can't wait to see what you create!!

hi toni,

thanks for the kind comments,

just doin' my job, cb.
