Outgoing Mail

This seems appropriate...it isn't an eclipse but close...
Little folders

Brown paper tied up in string...

Little folder with die cut tag from a vintage postcard


Black & White


...and vellum...

Photo postcards I made after our last mail art meet-up..

Some postcards collages -- anyone remember Magic Markers?
Doesn't it feel good to take a nice little stack and drop it in a PO box?

Little folder

With the world in the horrible state it is in lately art gives comfort.

Postal Fun

Did you miss the mail art meet-up on Sunday? Well, come along for a little visit today...

There were lots -- and lots -- of postage stamps to play with....

A little show-and-tell from my PDXCC pal Karen....


Some of us worked on glue books and here is a page of mine.....the joy of a pile of stamps and a glue stick...

Here is a page from Margarete's glue book....colors and postmarks...

Some made a bird glue book book..

I wish I used that bird carrying the letter stamp in my book...

Rebecca made some postcards

And, Brianna brought in a book she made using vintage envelopes for pages. How cool is that?

Three signatures in Brianna's book...I want to try making one.


And besides postage stamps, there were artistamps for our passports....


I always bring one of my postal zip bags made by my pal Dori to every meeting.


So, that was Sunday afternoon. VERY fun to play with postage stamps with my tribe.
I can't think of a better way to spend a Sunday afternoon, can you?
