Finally my last batch of mail art done for the year - at least before Xmas. I've sent around twenty off. Phew! Time to celebrate! Not only do my IUOMA friends keep me busy but also others outside of our circle. But busy is not bad, no busy is great! It's great to keep creative. I've hidden them so you can't really make out who I'm sending these envelopes to. Now off to…

Some of you might have had the pleasure to exchange with Christina A.Tarantino over the past couple of years... she lost her battle with cancer December 7, 2012. She will be missed and her words of encouragement will be echoed in the mail art world.

I was so honored to receive this parcel. Man, it was full of some goodies:

Mim altered a MOMA postcard for me. It's much better now!!! Thank you Mim!!

It says, "'We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of reorganizing and appreciating what we do have.' -Fredrick Koeing"

That's very apt!!! I would think it is akin to Mail Art. But, seems like…

Here is a piece by Moan Lisa as part of her Mermaid project...Love it!!! but it looks like Ms. Moan has gone off the grid again...She has a gift on the layering to actually create texture...so mystic and beautiful...Thank you Moan Lisa *!*
