Wasn't sure where to post this but wanted to let Lorrae know that her April "angel" mail art will be sent out to her today. Its light on her favorite color purple but hope it does the trick anyway. Sorry Lorrae that you had to wait so long, and I hope your May mail artist will do a better job than your April artist did! Don't give up ... this is one great swap and a wonderful dedicated moderator and group of artistic farmgirls.

Pennie Still aka Greenbean...THANK YOU FOR THE BEAUTIFUL card. At first I thought the flower on the envelope was a sticker until I realized it was your original artwork! The colors on the flower are so vibrant and I'm still trying to figure out how you stitched the silver zig zag??? LOVED MY MAIL ART! Thanks!
I'm tryig to post the pics, but the upload and insert image buttons are not working for me tonight. I'll keep trying.

Kathy in California sent me the MOST BEAUTIFUL Necklace with vintage artwork, buttons, bead, heart charm . . made by her "Angel Works". It came in a sweet little embroidered pouch. And she included a cute papercraft card and tag with a little story about herself.
IT'S WONDERFUL!!! GORGEOUS!!!
THANK YOU, KATHY!!

Danielle, I was having problems posting my pictures of my mail art also!! For some reason the button isn't wanting to work, I keep getting an error message.
LOL... my daughter thought it was a sticker too, she saw the envelope before she saw what I drew on the card!! heehee... the silver stitching, I used silver thread and just set my sewing machine on the zig zag stitch, I got that idea from my sister, she scrapbooks alot and that's a thing she uses alot, just remember though, when you run your paper through, go slow... for some reason, it likes to bind up inside where the bobbin is!
Im happy you like it!! :o)

Connie I received your card today! THANK YOU! It's adorable and I will get a picture of it up here this weekend! It always amazes me to see the talent! You and I are alike, I hate early morning too but live where the sun hits the USA first and coming into summer that can be as early as 3:00 AM so I find myself having to get up just to be around the rest of the world! I'm not a good Swede though as I don't drink the black stuff. I get my caffine by drinking soda pop which is probably far worse for you!

| Ceejay: I was addressing my mail art when I realized the address that I kept for May was for Kimberly in Osage City, KS. If I remember right, you sent me another address to send to instead, but now I can't find that one. Can you resend? Thanks. |

Hey CJ and Everyone!
I've been reading the thread with interest. This sounds like something right down my alley. I love doing ATCs. What is Mail Art? What's the difference between Mail Art and ATCs?? I'm sure there's some link I can go to for the explanation. Thanks!!

Hey Again!
I found the Mail Art Posting and INFO 2011 thread. (Should have looked better first!)
I just have one question: Generally what size are the Mail Art cards? |
