Have not heard from my partner, Kristen in Georgia, if she got my mail art. I hope it got there all right!

Here is my lovely Mail Art from Melissa. One of my kids took pity on me and helped w/ my computer problem! Anyway, it's beautiful and I love it! Melissa, I had to glue a few of the charms back on, as they had come off in the mail. I hope I got them right! Thanks, again! MaggieMB |

Catherine in TX - I'm so sorry, you didn't get your art yet! I sent it on the 15th but had an error in your address and it came back to me today. I'm going to correct it and resend it Monday. So sorry, hope it still brings a bit of joy to you when it gets there! 
Blessings, staci FG# 973 :o )

Ok, I guess I am a little slow as I have not been keeping up on the talk, but what am I supposed to be doing with circles and colors on my new art mail? Please explain and also forgive a slow cowgirl. :)
Happy Trails!

Thanks for explaining! I think my favorite color is Green, but it changes all the time. I hope that is what I had listed as my favorite color! Thanks again, Rachael
Happy Trails!

Hey Mail Artists,
This "Color Circle" thing really has nothing to do with circles as far as YOUR mail art is concerned. It only means that with you sending to one person and receiving from another, the group of mail artists itself forms a circle. So,I apologize for the confusion about that.
And, I have learned that many of you have lots of favorite colors and don't remember what you told me at the time you gave me the info, because I asked for only ONE color choice. Sooooo, I'm thinking I should have just told everyone in your Name/Address Info email which color circle you were in. So, I apologize for not doing that.
I DID, however, send a Mail Artist Group "Info" email to all of you dated March 20 and titled "TWO Items for MAIL ART". In that email I described what the plan was for the Color Circles . . . basically you would send to someone who had the same favorite color as you. It was suggested as an IDEA. So, another apology for not saying that was just an idea and not required.
So, I hope all this helps . . . some!!
Now, for the hard part. I need to request that the Mail Artist Group "Info" emails that I send to all of you from my personal email address are actually read. Sometimes they contain info you already have/know. Sometimes they contain info that you REALLY NEED TO READ. I know that there may be other questions or you need clarification . . I don't mind. Just email me and ask. My request is not specific to just this "color" thing, but other emails as well. This is just my plea to ask for your help in the work of communicating information for Mail Art. There are 90 . . . NINETY!!!! . . of you signed up. I LOVE THAT!!! Tickles me all shade of pink to have this many gals participating and I LOVE doing this Coordinator/organizer work . . . . I'll try to do better with all the "parts and pieces" of communication. I just need your help in collecting the information for yourself.
Thanks farmgirls! You ARE ALL AWESOME!!! CJ . . . your humble coordinator person

I have been planning a special theme for this month for sometime, hope my partner doesn't mind, it might not have her favorite color on it....well, I suppose I could find a spot for some...lol. I am hoping my March mail art will be here when I check my P O Box on Monday.
