It's time to start signing up for AUGUST Mail Art!

If this is your first time signing up for Mail Art, please visit the topic Farmgirl Mail Art to read our guidelines.

FOR AUGUST, please leave a comment on this thread stating you'd like to join in. If you aren't a sisterhood member, no worries, I will send an email to get your mailing address. Sign-up is available through AUGUST 10. If your comment appears after you've posted it, that means you're on the roster.

The theme for this month is ICE CREAM/POPSICLES. And as always, if the theme is not right for you, feel free to do your own thing.

I will send an email with your partner to you on AUGUST 15. Please send your Mail Art before AUGUST 31.

I'd like to encourage everyone to post a comment on the current month's thread when you receive your mail art. And if you can, a picture is nice. We all love seeing the inspiring art! And a quick thanks lets your partner know you received your mail art.

A couple more things to keep in mind:
1. Traditionally, Mail Art has been "secret"; part of the fun is receiving a surprise package from a surprise partner. I would encourage you not to tell your partner who you are until a reasonable amount of time has passed for them to receive your art.
2. Please be sure to include enough postage for your Mail Art to reach its destination :)

If you have any questions or concerns, please send me an email. I'm always delighted to help.

Happy swapping and farmgirl hugs,


MaryJane's daughter,

Meg

LOOK at this sweet package I just got from Brandy!! The seed bead bracelet looks like colored sugar and is just gorgeous! The "Sweet Ideas" notebook is very clever-I love that it has tiny index cars as pages-never seen anything like it. I cannot wait to try the ice cream sandwich too.
Brandy how kind and thoughtful you are especially just after dealing with the hurricane.
SO MANY thanks and hugs,
Aimee

Brandy,
No worries about my package!! You obviously have had much to deal with there in Florida. Hope all is getting back to normal!

I am so glad it arrived safely and that you enjoy everything! My daughter came home from college for the weekend, immediately noticed your magnets on the fridge, and mentioned how neat they are. The smoke finally started to clear this past week and we got out first rain last night in something like 70 days so the air looks, feels and smells clear for the first time in months.

Happy Fall to you and yours :)

Yours in Sisterhood

Thank you Rebecca from Gainesville! I received your beautiful package on the day we had to evacuate from Irma. We returned a few days ago and all is well, (Except for a lot of downed trees). Hope you faired well from the storm too.

Blessings-- Brandy



P.S. My recipient is Aimee. I will be sending your little goody box today. Please forgive me for sending it so late!

I received Michal's mail art over the weekend but had no cell service to post the picture! Michal he COOL that you were my recipient as well as me yours! Doesn't normally happen like that! I adore the 'cozie' and the adorable magnets....the hoop art is amazing(someday I may try this type of art!) and the handmade ice cream cards and stickers perfect for future use if my daughter doesn't confiscate them first! She loves them! I pray your weather and smoke has improved so that you can welcome fall with joy! Thank you so much for the terrific art package!! God bless! Dianna

Just received mine yesterday- What fun! Dianna everything you sent was just beautiful. Thank you so much. Judging by what you sent I am certain your first piece would have been amazing, but I appreciate the extra effort!

Oh Marilou!
I'm so glad it arrived as quickly as it did! I had such fun making up the pouch. DH just watched as it grew and then as I added the green at the end he said "It's a Watermelon!". I'm glad you like the rock. A church in our area is stating a thing called Grace Rocks. People are decorating rocks with inspiring messages and leaving them for folks to find (and re-hide or keep) and then posting to FB. The yarn bombs fit right in with it.
Love,

Bleeni

I just received my fabulous Mail Art from Aimee! It is so beautiful! I love the crochet watermelon pouch and I was so happy to receive your rock! I was so hoping to receive one since I saw you making them last year! -^-^- Even if you explained it really well, I just couldn't figure it out so thank you! There is also a watermelon soap and a cute blend of tea. You made my week! Everything is so beautiful :)

Here is a close-up of her fantastic skills!

Thanks again!

Holy smokes I finally got my mail art mailed out this morning! My apologies to my sweet recipient! I am too OCD and did not like how the first piece of art turned out so I made a new piece! But it is on its way northwest of me so hope you like it! Happy September!

I knew I couldn't be the first one! *chuckle*

I actually sent mine north on 8/30...it's on the way Farm Girl Dear!

This is just a quick message to tell my lovely secret sister that your package has just been mailed ^-^
And, I can't believe I'm the first one to finish my project! Normally, I'm always tagging a bit on the late side *chuckle*. Well, event thought I'm the first one mailing, it will still take quite a bit of time to reach since I'm far away...

Have a wonderful month and can't wait to see your fabulous creations!
