Kanji Puffs ga oishi desu ne - from David Stafford (looking suspiciously like the Kanji Fairy)

 

You might remember Kanji Puffs. One of the girls on Angie's blog had to get several of them excised from her throat I think (the girl's throat, not Angie's). But no worries, it's a minor surgery and absolutely routine. Today we learn a bit more about those wondrous little things filled with wholesome goodness.

My first envelope from the very talented Cathérine. Perfectly matching the card. I admire her work greatly, she has a unique style, very pure, very delicate, yet their is a…

The mysterious black bead - from Skybridge Studios (Lisa Iversen)

 

Lisa Iversen (Skybridge Studios) is sending me this beautiful piece. I say piece because I am not entirely sure in which category to put it. When I received it our conversation went something like this: 

M - Thank you for your wonderful bookie, Lisa. 

L - The black bead is supposed to be a volcano. 

M - black bead? I can't see any black…

The Ghostwriter, Year 1500 - from Cheryl Penn

 

I think I got it now. One of the reasons why Cheryl is such an outstanding artist is because she is also a very good storyteller. Almost anything will sparkle her imagination, and her ability to create new stories knows no borders.

But just like her books are not "orthodox" books, her stories aren't either.

Sir Gawain and the Green Knight - from Lesley Magwood Fraser

 

Sometimes you hold a book in your hands and you don't understand a word of it, and strangely, it makes it even better! 

Lesley is sending me this gorgeous little book based on Sir Gowain and the Green Knight, a 14th century poem relating the adventures of a knight of King Arthur's Round Table. 

I am copy-pasting a piece from Google because I…

June 9, 1941 - from Karen Champlin

This is the date Karen wrote on the back of the card, adding to the mystery of it. Maps, train time tables, red thread, black tape. Are they going to give me the answer to what happened on that day? 

Thank you for sending, Karen, your great cards are always muchly appreciated!

Heart Matters - from Katerina Nikoltsou

 

Heart really matters for Katerina, we know that, and we know how good she is to us at IUOMA. Cheryl, Angie, and I think Lesley have already written a nice blog about her Heart Matters bookie, so this is slightly redundant, but can one ever have too much Heart Matters? I don't think so...

More antique treasures - from Theresa Williams

 

Although this is my first envelope from her, Theresa must know my love for vintage and antique. And actually, more than an envelope, this was a very delicately wrapped present, what a fantastic thing to get in one's mail!

The Heated Heart - from Cheryl Penn

 

Heart Matters so much that it needed a few additional boekies from Cheryl, and I am the VERY lucky owner of one of them! As Cheryl says, the more it Matters, the Better.

With ensuing Consequences.

When I saw Nancy's work featuring on several blogs I was hoping to receive something from her, and I didn't have to wait for a very long time, her first envelope arrived this week, lucky me.

Nancy dug up an old box full of of antique print blocks and stamps from her attic, check out her blog if you haven't seen it yet, it is very impressive. She started to use and…
