Bonsoir! the biutterflies have arrived safely in Sigean -- thank you, they are very pretty. Something will be in the mail back to you in the next day or so, pas de papillons, mais le Jeux Olympique.

Bestest, Val

Bonjour Marguerite!

 I got a lovely 'hot balloon' envelope from you today. I opened it very, very carefully because it was so pretty that i didn't want to destroy it, and then found inside.... a beautiful 'authentic vintage' postcard with all sorts of things collaged on it, and yet another hot air balloon.

Thank you very much for two (lucky me!) great pieces.

I'll be mailing you something back soon.

In the meantime, Bon Weekend and Regards,

Val

Thank you, Marguerite, for the great packet full of wonderful things for making mail art.

That is a fantastic envelope, too. I really enjoyed receiving all you sent xxx

I blogged it here:

Hello New Friend Marguerite! If you'd like to exchange some Mail Art, then send me something to 1 Rue de la Vieille Fontaine, F-11130 Sigean, France, and I promise (cross my heart, and hope to die) that I'll send you something back. Regards from Your New Friend, Val

Bonjour Marguerite! Many thanks indeed for ther envelope full of 'party favours' goodies that you sent. There's some great stuff in there, raising the question should I pass (and add) or be selfish and keep for myself? Who knows?

I'm not going to open the lil packagae'Stamp a stamp' until the weekedn, and then perhaps I'll start carving my own faux postage. Quel faux!

I'll be mailing you something back soon.

Thanks again and bon weekend, Val

Ohhhh, beautiful blue arrived in Greece, Marguerite! Thank you! You color my world, too! And I love the map fragment...Kalaoa, Hawaii (I love to google map things, too). Great effect with stitchery...and even a blue dolphin stamp! Perfect!

Thank you so much, xxx

Bonjour Mademoiselle!

Thank you for the nibbles all the way from Lancaster. They bvtasted nice, very nice indeed.

You say that it's very hot where you are, and I wonder how hot is hot?

Here' it's about 90° today, but there's a strong wind and that keeps things bearable;

I went to the beach for 3 hours this morning, and it's much, much cooler there (although th sea was freezing, well, cold).

I'll be sending you something back by the end of the week.

Don't melt away!

Bestest, Val

Another beauty of a mail art piece from you has arrived in Greece!

Thank you so much! You can see it posted here (in the comments)

Very nice indeed xxx

Bonjour Marguerite! Thanks for the lil card with the boat sailing on the water, and the lil oy in as alor's suit, and 'life is good'. I hope it is for you, and that the summer is not unbearabbly hot in Lancaster.

I'll be maling up some things in the next couple of days, and will send you something back.

Thanks again, and best wishes, Val

Another Bonjour! Another Thankyou! This time, Dear Marguerite, for the Pennsylvania Dutch card -- Old Fashioned Goodness, indeed, from you to me. I'm glad that you had a relaxing vacation. I seem to have been on vacation since I was retired -- note the tense -- about 10 years ago, but Art keeps me busy. I'll be mailing you something back by the end of the week.

Thanks again & regards, Val

I can't keep up, Marguerite! And still another of your special Mail Art pieces has arrived -- this one with a pretty hand-cum-tree/fingered  card AND a lovely card with collaged miwed-media squares/ Wow! Lucky me.

So I owe you yet another piece. I will catch up, PROMISE.

Bestest, Val

Marguerite, we need to get Val a scanner or something.  Your work sounds wonderful by the sound of Val, and it would be nice to see it for real.  Did by chance did you scan it before you sent it?

Margeurite, your ingenious little flux kit arrived. My daughter fell in love with every little thing you put in it. It is my first to receive and I say AMEN to the manifesto. Thank you so much I love every little bit

Bonjour Marguerite,

You're very clever...managing to turn an envelope inside out a!

You're very talented ...making me such a pretyy collage card.

And you are, of course, an artist, or as you said'In her heart she knew that she was an artist'.

I know too.

Which is my way os saying thankyou/mercibeaucoup!

I'll be mailing you something back soon/

Best wishes, Val

Sorry for tall the typos...Bianca, my cat, walked across the keyboard and sent the message before I could correct it!

Bianca sends her best wishes too.

Bonsoir Marguerite!

Thanks for the Happy Halloween card -- tis very 'jolie', as we say here in France. 'Trick or treat', the ATC card asks -- well I guess the card is my treat.

Am glad you survived Sandy. The pictures on TV of the devastation in NY and NJ looked awful.

I'll be mailing you something back soon -- similiar, but, I hope, pleasingly different to the last thing I sent you.

Thanks again & regards, Val

I received your Halloween Island Mail art catalog thank you card!  I've put it on the island mail art blog: http://cranberryislandmailart.blogspot.co.uk
