Blue tape- ATCs from Karen Champlin and MinXus stamps from Dark wall

[Marie Wintzer]

 

I have several blue tape envelopes from Karen Champlin. I don't really know what Karen and De Villo's blue tape collaboration really is about, but I take it as a seal of quality :-)) Her ATCs are pocket-size masterpieces. Extremely well crafted. I love the neatly punched holes on those (and the A inside!). Every time I see them I think yes, she truly is the boss of them ATCs. Lucky me, thank you Karen!

 

From one blue tape to another one, I am proud to introduce Dark wall's new MinXus stamps. Dw doesn't send out much mail but he actually is a prolific artist. He doesn't talk much (though he can repeat the word DKoder an impressive amount of times) so I thought I would make a bit of promotion on his behalf. I consider those as received material and I will be using them on future envelopes to promote the Arthur Rimbaud School of Aesthetics and Subtle Obscurity :-))

 

The first set of stamps was a prototype, bearing a blue tape X, which I found really cool. The set below is the final version, with some of the minxes wearing little crowns. I just love them, thank you Dark wall, as usual your imagination knows no borders!

I adopted DW don't forget - quite a while ago - I know its a bit in the air, I'm still waiting for the papers to come through. I think they bare  a MinXus stamp. So, to get to him ya gotta go thro' ME!!! Wotch yor step!

But he's so deck-adent and hugly! I heartly agree,

[cheryl penn]

No, I only dish out hugs. Especially to Dark's :-) XX

Dw is a real Ace. He needs a clubbing then a royal flush.

Lucky thing is, if the Titanic is sailing in African waters, there are no icebergs :-) X

He's the Joker for sure and playing with a full deck - aboard the Titanic, that is.
