It's time to sign up for July Mail Art :)

If this is your first time signing up for Mail Art, please visit the topic Farmgirl Mail Art under the Farmgirl Swap heading to read our guidelines. Then leave a comment on this post if you want to participate and I will contact you.

If you signed up for June Mail Art and wish to continue on with July, DO NOTHING. Just relax and start creating, I've got ya covered, although I will send you a little note to confirm.

If you signed up for June Mail Art and DO NOT WISH TO CONTINUE on with July, please send me an email.

Themes for July will be America and/or red/white/blue and/or Open. (Open just means you create anything you wish, not following the themes).

I will post partners by Monday July 7. Please send your Mail Art before July 31.

A couple of 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

The hand painted waterproof fabric case will be great for makeup or take-along crafts when we travel. And I just LOVE teas. The Bigelow green tea flavor assortment is much appreciated. And the intriguing muslin bendable doll is a blank slate for creativity. Just whom she will be is still an intreging mystery. I'm thinking little red riding hood, hmmm.
Thank you so much!!

Mary - you are very welcome. I hope it is ok with you to post a pic of the bag so folks can see it. Here is the item that I sent Mary...hand painted canvas.

Are you a teacher, Margo? What age? I guess you'll be going back soon. Kids here in WV are going back Thursday. I'm glad you will have a reminder that there is life outside the classroom . . . at the farm wherever it may be.

Thanks, Kristine. I truly wasn't asking or complaining. I have learned that when sisters don't follow through there are usually valid reasons and few excuses. I just wanted those two to know I am concerned about whatever is going on in their lives.

Blessings,

It's okay to complain and feel disappointed when someone doesn't follow through. You and a couple other sisters will be receiving special little packages from me soon

Not complaining, I just want someone to know that I did not receive July Mail Art in case you sent to me. I wouldn't want anyone to think me ungrateful. I also never heard from the person I mailed to. I hope all is well with her. I know things certainly happen way beyond our control. So I'm sending up a little prayer. Looking forward to the August swap.

Blessings,

Janis...I am glad that you liked it and I put one of my favorite Quotes on there.
We often need to be reminded that we are EACH IMPORTANT in someone's LIFE!
For me, My Farmgirl Sisters are such a major part of my life...I just can't even
tell you...how much each and everyone means to me.

Love and Hugs,
Peggy

Beautiful art work this month. I do love to see the pictures. My goal for August is to learn to post pictures. Thanks to Rachel's private tutorial on the Poor House, I just might succeed. :)

Thank you PeggyAnn for the whimsical collage art mail you sent. I feel like a fairy, all light-hearted and ready to flight. Also, thanks also for the Lavender. I grow new each Spring so I'm all ready. Sorry I haven't written sooner. Blessings, Jan

WOW ALICIA...YOU SPOILED ME ROYAL GIRL!!! What an AMAZING Mail Art Pkg I got!!
I couldn't believe when I opened it...ALL the Wonderful Goodies that came tumbling out.
I love The Apron...too cute for Words! The Tote bag is adorable! And I have already used
the little oven mitts. And the Home-made card and creative Mailing Pkg was just such
a Special Surprise. You really out did yourself...and Thank You from the bottom of my
Heart.

Is anyone else been having trouble receiving MJF Posts over the weekend???? I Have gotten non

I guess I will have to email Brian and see what is going on.

Thanks Again Alicia...you blessed my socks off!!! (+:

Thank you so much for your wonderful mail art! You do wonderful work! I almost sat out July but I am so glad I didn't. Congrats on the blue ribbon too - it makes it all the more special :)


Here's a picture of the mixed media art Staci sent to me along with a picture of the first place ribbon she won when she entered it in the fair before sending it to me!!!


Thanks again!
