i have dabbled in photography for some time now. nothing professional, just playing. i have a good camera (canon rebel) and edit my pics in photoshop. i take lots of pics of the art i do and my creative process for my art blog, so getting better with practice ;)

thanks for the compliments! see you in the mail very soon!!!

as for the sticker label on my journal, it's from an old school label maker. the ones that the letters get punched onto the sticker part. i've had that label maker forever, actually since childhood. but i think you can still buy them in stores...

take care!

Your beading pattern was elegant and calming. You are a wonderful mail-art pen-friend, and I am very fortunate you friended me here and that I get to enjoy exchanging with you. Something will be on its way to you soon - oh dear, will it still be a surprise if you know it's coming?

At 9:08am on February 9, 2010, Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) said…: Thank you, Samantha, your mail art came along with a card from Marianne, and there was no return adress, so I was wondering who sent it. The poor sleeve was torn and perhaps some things were lost, but your "happy thoughts" survived! Many thanks!

They archived the works. So far they have not had another it was a workshop open to the public and they provided the stamps, papers, pens etc.

Some other things I like are steampunks, cute cartoons, rainbows, Lady Gaga, riot grrrl stuff, or any hand-drawn/hand painted stuff. Or whatever else you'd like, those are just a few suggestions if you're stuck. What kinds of stuff are you looking for? :o
