Hi Tina, I am glad that you liked it. I did take a photo of it. I will try to post it this afternoon. I am anxious to get mine. It is interesting that we used the same colors.
Hugs...Nancy #2301 Live everyday to the fullest |

Greetings Bridget! I hope your mail arrived safely. I LOVE the sneak...just wanted to let you know that it has not arrived yet. Our post man is not the most reliable lately...sub...hope he did not deliver to the neighbor across town.
Warmly, Heike

Ladies...remember that "sneak peaks" ruin the element of Surprise for the Mail-Art Recipient. It is better to post pictures after the mail-art has been received. I know we get excited and want to show off our creations...but think about how much more fun it is to open it up straight from the mail box. It is kind of like sneaking a peak at your Christmas Presents before Christmas...Christmas Morning just isn't the same if we know everything we are getting before hand.

B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L. Mail-Art Sisters! They are just all so pretty. Good thing we don't do a contest out of this because it would be impossible to choose winners...because they are all so FABULOUS!

MAIL ARTISTS . .
It seems that several of you have mailed mail art pieces out long ago that haven't made it to their recipients. I'm not sure what we can do about that and I'm hoping that they are simply delayed because of weather, etc.
So, if you have NOT received mail art yet, be patient and hang in there until your mail comes on Monday, the 14th. If you still have NOT received anything then please email me right away.
Thanks . . and I'm hoping EVERYONE receives their February Mail Art (everyone who signed up in time for the February "round")

CJ - it's so true. The mail truly does seem to be so much slower than usual... You're right, though - the weather isn't helping. Just a little speed bump, I'm sure.
Catherine - according to USPS tracking, yours is out for delivery today! 'Should be there soon! :) Enjoy!

Oh my gosh, girls! All of the art is just so beautiful!
Catherine's arrived today in the mail - I just love it! I couldn't adjust the flash on my camera well enough to capture the beautiful blues and pinks - the picture just doesn't do this justice! Robin's Egg Blue is my favorite spring color, Catherine - and I just love the little birds!
I can't thank you enough for this lovely gift - you have made my whole day! Hugs - Nini

all the mailart is just so gorgeous this month. thanks all for sharing with photos.
I am thinking the bad weather down here in Missouri the last couple weeks must have delayed my mailart to Mel in Texas-and her ice and snow weather has effected her mailart to me-we are getting a thaw of warm weather now-so hopefully my mailart will get to her soon-

Lookie what I got in the mail the other day from Deborah...... I just LOVE it!! Isn't it beautiful?!
And I do think the weather is playing an awful trick on our mail carriers. Hang in there gals. Hopefully your mail art will get to you soon. :)

Here is a picture of the Mail Art that I sent to Bren. I think it took almost 2 weeks to get to her and this was before the last big storm, so maybe there is still hope for the missing Mail Art to arrive. I continue to be amazed by all of the beautiful and creative art that everyone has been making! That Zentangle is really intriguing, and I'd love to learn more about it. I wish there was a way to move all of the pictures of the art to one place so that they could be viewed all together! It's so inspiring to look at :-) MaggieMB |

Mel-I just got home a bit ago-first time out of the house since the blizzard two weeks ago-and your gorgeous mailart was in my mailbox. It is so beautiful, and I appreciate all the work that went into this beautiful card. I will post photos tomorrow. Thank you so much again, I just wanted to let you know that it arrived today.-I Love it so much Kathy

Finally figured out how to take a picture with my phone...send it to my computer...put it in a photo file and then upload to here. Complicated but it works. Doesn't take as crisp a picture as my digital camera but still I can share. The pink-ribbon trimmed picture is my mail art from Carla...along with an adorable notebook propped to the right and a sweet note from her. The back of her card was cute too but forgot to take a picture of the Valentine and message. Thanks Carla, I loved it and as you can see it looks beautiful in my Spring Setting I placed it in.
Love and A Big Thank You! Peggy
