DEAR MAIL ART-ISTS,
I continue to invite those of you who would like to share your Mail Art to make something for my daughter, Robin, and I to decorate our sweep crew van as we participate in the AVON WALK FOR BREAST CANCER in early September.
I've received some REALLY AWESOME, ADORABLE Mail Art for that purpose!!!! It will be shared with LOTS of event participants!!!
IF YOU'D LIKE TO MAKE SOMETHING FOR THIS, let me know and I'll give you the particulars!!!
THANKS!!!

Kim, I wrote a note on the inside on a little piece of paper and it's on both sides! I forgot when I taped it down. How silly of me. I hope it will come off. I didn't want to write on the card.

Terri, Kathy and Staci...Whoa There Farmgirls...that is some really snazzy
Mail Art! Terri yours was just as adorable as everyone else's and I know
everyone will agree with me on that. We see so much raw talent we just figure
ours doesn't stack-up...I know, I have had the same thoughts...but we are
each unique in our own creativity and artistic ability and I have not viewed
one Mail-Art Project on here that I would not personally LOVE TO RECEIVE and
be PROUD to display in my home. Which I do, with each of the pieces I receive.
They are precious to me!
Blessings,

Just a reminder, Mail Art-ists . . .

Ain't no comparing us UNIQUE farmgirl mail art-ists to any other!!!
Sooooooo, the masterpieces you create are ALL WONDERUL, BEAUTIFUL and MARVELOUS!!!
The thing about this is that we ALL won't be able to enjoy a masterpiece from EVERYONE . . . unless each person stays with Mail Art for a VERY LONG TIME!!!!!
So. . . here's to our UNIQUE-NESS!!!!! to our BEAUTIFUL MASTERPIECES!!!

This is the lovely card and envelope that Carole sent me last month. I am so embarrassed that I am just now getting around to posting it.
Carole, I really love them, and want to thank you again!
I also received early this month an adorable Fourth of July themed heart from Linda. I love it! It is hanging from a cabinet in our living room.
My sincere apologies for being late with getting my mail art out this month. I'll get better at this timing thing!

I hope they are not too big, can't find a way to make them smaller. If this is an OK size, would you please let me know, CJ? Thanks!

Therese,
It would be good if you could resize them a bit smaller. You can do that in Photobucket . . just click on "edit" over the pic and it'll bring up all sorts of "tools" for resizing, etc. Works pretty good. If you have trouble figuring that out, let me know.
It is good to be able to see . . . some of the pics are kinda small, but if they are too big that eats up a lot of space on the forum.
It's MOST EXCELLENT when pics are posted!!!!

OK, I did it! Thank you CJ, I guess I never really paid attention to the options on photo bucket. I hope it's better, I resized them.

Thank you, so much Ginny, (Oggie) for the adorable card, I loved seeing all about your life and town! The front pic from 1919 brought tears to my eyes, the year my Dad was born. Loved it all and I have always wanted to see Maine.  I don't seem to be able to add more than one pic with out losing the whole post....so another two are coming.
