You can imagine how delighted I was to see this piece of art in my mailbox!Beverly sent this to me - she is a gem.
I am inspired!!!!
Mail art is new to me- don't laugh I've been busy with kids a long time- who knew this whole world of creativity was out there??!
When I read in her blog about the envelopes I asked about how she did it and I got a hands on tutorial right there in my mailbox!
Thanks Bev! You have enlarged my little world!
Blessings,
Autumn

Ooooohhhhhh....Aaaahhhhhh...very pritty indeed! And a sweet handwritten note too! Bev IS a gem!
I did chuckle a teeny bit about your lack of knowledge Autumn, but ONLY because I felt exactly that way a few years ago. I took a break to raise little boys and by the time I got back to creating I was AMAZED at what was out there!  Isn't it FUN?
