I sent this to Diane Keys, and it seems to have arrived.

j Maybe a bit flat on the G string, but it seems to have arrived.

k Great bank that ELO.  It was on the radio when I thought of this piece.…

Received this signature piece from the wonderful, rabbit loving, Svenja! Not sure if the female figures are transparencies, tape transfers or what, but I love the combo with the German text. the back has her rabbit stamp and a kind stamped note to the postbot "Please deliver to my IOUMA friend" that simple phrase really warmed my heart. Always a pleasure to receive mail from…

It's always great to get art from Karen. Each series she makes is different, yet shares her obvious love of layering. Love the warm tones. thank you karen!

Lindsay has captured my imagination with this card! I have ideas ricocheting around in response. My first mailart with…

WOOOWWWWW (please add 10 Os and as many Ws as you like!). The good news: A special treat from Cheryl in my mailbox.The bad news: There is a ghost in her alphabet - as you will immediately see: …

One of Jims wonderful photo collages, this one with a picture from the Syracuse, New York, Airport, Jim took it at 11 a.m. in the morning, he wrote. Thank you, I love it, the photo ands stamp combination is just…

Card sharper packaging with loose playing card inside.  I count 3 aces by using the joker.  And I'm sure that Vizma wants me to use the joker.  Don't be fooled by this 6 card hand.  These are down under rules, not that Texas Hold stuff.  The squirrel looks worried that I'm going to beat the nuts off him.  Fun piece Vizma, Thank you.

One never knows what's up my sleeve. …

OK these stamps are pro.  Real pro.  I just spoke to Val and he told me about Arty stamps and the people who do them.  I am far from an expert, but most of these could pass for the real Mc Dickau.  I also enjoyed the bar code postcard.  A real treat.

From the April 20, 2012 set of 21 / 24

Erni the man comes up with a good find.  The Beethoven Marathon is like standing on a tight rope.  Only to know that it may be cut at any time while you are running.  Actually the Beethoven Marathon is 32 Sonatas played back to back.  When you buy the ticket for this concert, the ticket reads; "Bring you own coffee".

A person needs a little…

Well the real phrase goes something like that.  And here we have it, a bone from Prince of Crance or is it a Dean Marks artifact?

Here we are with the original bone with the original certificate.  I don't know what you might do with this, but I'm keeping it in a save place.…

In Wales they have tuna lunches everyday, and sewing lessons at the same time.  This piece combines the two and adds a little sea fishing to boat  boot.  Then again a boot in Wales is a trunk unless you wear it on your feet.  Just call Carl at sea fishing trips.  He'll explain everything to you.    Thank you Sarah, great fun.…

I received two pieces last week from Dame Mailarta & Snappy.  Same person, but just from two different days.  I sent Dame Mailarta a self portrait and was thrilled to be found on the same page as Ricky Gervais & Doris Day.  However what was really rewarding was to be on the same page as Phyllis Diller.  Now an outragious 94 year old that made me laugh as a child with her one liner and crazy laugh.  This is a dream come true.  Thank you Dame Mailarta…
