Thank you Bridget (bridiemurphy) for this fabulous packagee of shabby chic goodies! Your art is inspiring me to make use of some of my collected vintage gypsy cameos :).
So happy your daughter and friend enjoyed the shark teeth. We always collect them when we go to the Headlands, and it never loses its' magic :). I am happy to have shared with an ocean sister.. :).
Warmly,
Heike

Monica,
Apparently your mail art hasn't made it yet and neither has mine. Appears we are both victims of the missing mail bug. And I didn't get a pic before I sent it, so I can't even show you that!!

Thank you, Climbergirl for starting this thread. Perhaps we should dedicate our mail art book to you? Dianne in the Hudson Valley

Where am I on this exchange? I signed up early on and I don't see myself!
without creativity, we cannot be! |

Cheryl,
Yes, you did sign up and you are on the list. You just signed up after the February "round". Sooooooo, I'll be sending emails out next week, starting about Weds. to ALL Mail Artists with the Name/Address of the person you will send your March Mail Art to.
I hope you've received all the Mail Art Group "Info" emails I've tried to send to everyone. So, don't give up. March Mail Art is coming!!!
Just email me if you have any further questions.

Tina, I am still hoping my mail art might just make it here. One never knows about the mail delivery. I do thank you for all the time and effort you made creating it. Did you take a photo of it?

A new year has come and we will be starting fresh and new for 2011 with MAIL ART. If you are not sure what mail art is, I invite you to check out the 2010 forum thread, titled "Mail Art - New for 2010". There you can see pictures of mail art pieces that have been sent/received throughout the year of 2010.
Currently participating mail artists have been sent a "RENEWAL" email from me. If you are active and received that email please respond to that email if you wish to "renew" for 2011.
NEW MAIL ARTISTS: Here is the place to sign up to participate in Mail Art.
THERE ARE TWO STEPS to signing up:
FIRST STEP: Post right here on this thread a simple post that you wish to participate.
SECOND STEP: Send me the following information in an EMAIL to me:
- your mailing address
- your email address
- your "real" name
- your forum name
- your birthdate (please include the year if possible)
- your favorite color, ONE choice only.
NOTE #1: Please do not post this personal information here on the forum. It is a public forum and can be read by anyone and we don't want your personal information compromised. Send to me via EMAIL.
NOTE #2: Both steps are necessary before I can officially sign you up.
MAIL ART works like this: You would make an original piece of your choice (as long as it is positive and in good taste) every month to send to another mail artist.
- You SEND to a different person each month
- You RECEIVE from a different person each month
- The person you SEND to is NOT the same person you receive from.
- MAIL OUT DEADLINE: the 15th of each month.
I make the mail out "round" lists and email you with the name and address of the person you send to each month. You get to ENJOY a lot of different creativity, "meet" many new farmgirl friends and have a TON OF FUN!!!!!
And, if you have ANY questions, please don't hesitate to ask. You can email me with any questions.
LOOKING FORWARD TO ANOTHER YEAR OF "MAIL ART"!!

Sharon, Color and birthday info will be in future mail art "rounds".
The "method of my madness" in the MARCH MADNESS "round" is based on the year of birthdays, in chronological order. Mail Artists will end to the next person younger.
(Some didn't give me YEAR, so that will be random)
There ya' go.

I finally figured this out! I was making it harder than it needed to be. I have a love/frustrating relationship with cameras and computers! This wonderful card and dish cloth are from Susan. I posted earlier and said I would post pics when I figured it out. Here they are. Thank you again, Susan.
