Christine, So thrilled to receive my mail art!! I just think it too cute. I love the little red parrott!!!! What a clever idea. This looks like your original artwork. The Jack and Jill card was quite clever also. Thanks for the time and talent that you put into your mailart. I am always so excited to receive mine and also to send one out. Thank you and many blessings. Gail, FG Sister #61

Melissa, I'm so glad that you asked about your art! There was some water damage to the outside of the envelope and the return address and name were completely smeared off. There was no name inside either, so I didn't know who had sent this beautiful art to me! Anyway, I just LOVE it! Thank you so much! I was trying to post a picture of it, but my USB is damaged or something. I will try again tomorrow,as I would like to share this joyful image of Spring w/ everyone. |

Mary,
So very Happy to hear you received Mail Art OK. Sorry for forgetting to enclose my name inside. Thought about that after I mailed it. Hind sight you know is 20-20 LOL
I am glad the Art was not damaged. It came from annapols MD and I also have a place in Rockwood PA that I mail from. Don't know who is the better PO.
Anyways, Hugs to You,
Melissa

This is wonderful March mail art I received from CJ. Thank you so much. I am not Irish, except that everyone is Irish if they honor St. Patrick's Day, and I love spring green and yellow aprons, trinket boxes, castles and tea. And, I believe in fairies and leprecans!!!! I agree, mail-art usually comes just when I need a pick-me-up. I thank God for all my sisters.

Hi Farmgirls, just wanted everyone to know that I have not recieved my mail art, but I am out of town, across the US, looking at new homes right now, and am eagerly anticipating receiving my mail art when I get back...and will send my partner an email as to this situation too.
My art went to Danielle Lupipersbeck, and she requested that I post a pic of what I sent her. She is having difficulties with her program right now. Since Danielle lives and operates a dairy/cattle farm, I decided to make her a burlap covered frame that can be hung on the wall, designed with a dairy theme and a hand made "Spring Chicks" card with chickens. Enjoy:) Erica:)

Lisa, I am SO sorry! I received your mail art package earlier in the month but you went so far above and beyond that I thought it was a RAOK package! (I did thank you over on that thread when I got it.) When I saw your post asking if your mail art was received I suspected my package was mail art, but I had to check with CJ to make sure LOL. I love it! The page is so cute and springy and the crocheted animals are ADORABLE. I have them sitting on my treadle machine so I can see them all the time. I will try to get a pic up tomorrow for everyone else :) Sorry again for the confusion Lisa! And Thank You!!!

Hello Farm girls,
I guess I will add my 2 pennies. I have not received my Mail Art yet. I am hoping it has not gotten lost in the mail. Please let me know if you have sent it.
Hugs, Melissa 2281

I have tried for the last 3 days to upload a photo of the beautiful mail art I received from Star- Schipp and am close to committing a homocide...I have sketchy internet service on the best of days and the last few days have been very bad. I LOVE the card you sent! And I am so sad I can't share it! A lovely collage card with vintage style Irish ephemera and a glittery MARCH. Thankyou so much, Star-Schipp from Indiana!
Hopefully, things will improve and I can share it with all of you. I have it sitting on the buffet of my dining room and it makes me so happy!

Sheree K. you have made my day today, it has not been a good day. Had to take my hubby to the airport he is heading to California for a week to work, even though we have been married 36 years I still cry when he leaves as I miss him so. On top of that I have been sick for a couple of days and not sleeping so I took myself to the emergency room this morning. I have and infection so am on antibiotics and pain pills. So, I am sad and feeling blue. Stopped at the mail box on the way home and there was my beautiful mail art from you. For your first attempt it is fabulous and I am so happy you were my swap partner. Live, Laugh and Love should be everyone's motto. In fact I am embroidering a towel with this words on them. I will treasure it always and display it proudly, thank you so much for making me feel special. Farm girl Hugs, Debbie

Huh! Well, guess you all can figure out that I am new at posting on forums.
Glad you liked my mail art, Debbie. Glad too, from the sound of your email, that you are feeling better.
Looking forward to much fun with this!

Yikes! I just finally had time to look through this forum thread. My mail art looks so goofy besides some of the wonderful pictures I have seen. Hope my parteners won't be disappointed, but I will enjoy being as creative as I know how. Practice may make better - not perfect - but better I am sure.

Catherine! I just LOVE your mail art! Thank you SO much! You really brightened my day and made me smile! I feel so "lucky" to have been your swap partner this month! ;)
Girls - the picture just doesn't do this justice! The Leprechaun's head is 3D, and the Pot O' Gold bobbles and wobbles so the gold is all shiny and sparkly! SO adorable!!!
Girls - you all are truly farmgirl artistes! I love all the beautiful work you've done! And I just LOVE this swap! Thank you CJ!!!!
Hugs to all -
Nini
