"Don't let others take your happy" - love it! And agree. Received 07-22-20. Thank you :)

Received this bundle of fun from Carol Canfield! It will be fun to work on the ATCs, haven't done ATCs in a while!

Thank you Renee for the fun postcard you sent! I'm so glad you liked the digital photo. They are a lot of fun to make!

Received a beautiful card with sewn-on tag from Olena! Card is a limited edition print! so much goodness here, I love it!…

A wonderful package from Peg today. A couple of ATC tri-jams for me to take part in. A nice little haul of american quarters to add to my state quarter collection map folder I just need to unstick them from the paper to add them to the folder and to mark them from my list in my profile, lol. Also a nice handmade card with a matching atc for my collection.

I do love getting fun things in the mail, it really does make me happy.…

Hurray for the ticketmaster! Thanks a lot, Jack.

Thank you, William :) Really enjoyed your mail! Beautiful postage stamps, too.

I may be violating a IUOMA policy here but I think it's important for people to realize that the forces of darkness are once again trying to privatize our Postal System, widely regarded as one of America's proudest achievements for a wide variety of reasons.

Check out this paper from In The Public Interest and then consider writing a letter to these…

This great envelope from Katerina took a very long time to get here due to the pandemic. For a while the Greek post office was not accepting any items to send to the USA (although I could send to Greece). It hasn't been exactly speedy since resuming, either. This colorful envelope was postmarked in May, and arrived in July.

Love the handmade map envelope and the beautiful tag. Thank you very much, Marlies :)

Artistamps and Bag-O-Zine from Jean. She also sent a rubber stamped mini book that I didn't have time to take a picture of. Wonderful work all around.



A wonderful set of artistamps from Chuck. I'm especially loving…

For a long time, I've been altering vintage postcards, usually fairly boring ones, with the addition of a piece of art. I have a lot of fun finding just the right piece, with the right angle, to set into the landscape. This is one I did last fall. I'd popped it into a storage drawer, forgot about it, and am now sending it out. Finally, in 2020.    Can you spot the addition? …

From Boise,Idaho comes this Mail Art Call,

I have already sent two, hopefully they will arrive one day during this Covid Era?

'Liking this very much, too, that Debra sent... for knitting?…

A card of a fearless leader?

How the mighty have fallen :-)

Lovely envelope art:

MERCI!…

Recent project: “Self-Care Medals: take one for whatever you need and/or title you deserve.” ATC size. 

The group is spoken for but I plan on making more variations. 

I started these in March? They’re oversized index cards that have random notes on them from about 18 years ago from some course my future ex-husband took on Transcendentalism. I still have a decent stack so I’ll probably make more stuff out of them in the future.

Thank you to my friend Chris Cossu (@wegozoom on IG), Fleur Helsingor, and Melissa Wand.…
