Thank you so much, Karen, your great "vintage" collage and map arrived today in Greece! On a blog, oh, yes!

Thank you! I am now officially an  Old Person, but don(t feel it (yet!). to celebrtae becoming an Old person, I'm going to cycle 10 miles to the coast, have a pre-dawn swim, and then cycle home again to have some tea and toast (with peanut buter or marmalade). then we'll see what happens...

Bon weekend, Val

Karen, wow, I just got you're wonderful work. (I had to fetch it at the customhouse, and had to open it there to proof that there was no invoice included. The clerk wanted me to tell her how much this piece is worth!! What could I tell her? We agreed on a value of 5 Euros in avoidance of a fee for me to pay. - It was fun explaining her what this mail art is all about, don't know if she will become a fan or still thinks that we both have to be crazy). Anyway your work is fantastic, I love this little format you sent!! Thanks a lot!

KC,

My hand/arm is slowly improving, so keep an eye on your mailbox in the coming weeks. It may not be my best work, but I'm gonna give it a go. :)

Ooh!  Love the print you sent me! You have inspired me to work with multiple colors in printmaking.  Thank you!  And the business card is a great idea too!

Mama always said:"Good things come to those who wait" Thank you!!!

Hi I think you sent me mail art again, and got it 2 days ago. Thank you. If it is ok I will email you directly so I don't need to come around IUOMA site.

Just a thought, you just put your card and a small card. You could use a regular envelope for the cheaper postage fee? Thank you. Tomoe

Karen, nonononono, that is so wonderful what you sent me!!! I absolutely love the photo and the three-dimensionality of the whole piece, thank you very very very much. I just put it on the wall here above my desk! Happy mail day!!!
