Hello Gals :-) I received a very nice & unique piece of art work from one of you but I am not sure who LOL. You didn't sign it & there is no return address. I emailed Kristine to inquire who sent it but have not heard back from her. So, please post here & let me know who you are & I will take a picture tomorrow & give you a proper Thank You :-)

Here is a very unique piece of art work sent to me by Dalice Marie. She used scraps of paper from her life to form a very special piece of art. Thank You Dalice Marie :-) I hope you received my email ? I am going to laminate it & use it as a divider in my Filofax. I will see it everyday, it's truly special :-)

Hi Girls.. Back from yet another side trip. Still finishing up mail art.. I spent my vacation and part of this week finishing up a layette for my DIL's best friend. And, since she lives out of town and is in the process of moving the family this week.. You guessed it-- hand delivered !
Now, to start my Mail Art project.. Hope to get it out by Saturday morning !!! Mary (Madelena)

Look at this Adorable little Blue-bird of Happiness I got from Mary Jo Winter. And the cute clothes pins, sweet Butterfly Burlap Pouch and the Zinnias Look like a pkg of flower seeds but it was a greeting card. What a perfect little up-lift that was in my Mail Box Today. I just want you to know that I currently have my Front Foyer Decorated in Birds, Birdcages,Birdhouses and Nests. So, I put the little bird magnet out there on my Memo-Board. It fit is so perfectly with my display. Once it comes in the house it will go on my Fridge. THANKS SO MUCH...ENJOYED IT ALL!!
Blessings and hugs, Peggy

My mail art came yesterday, and I love it!! This is the first mail I've received from a fellow farmgirl and it did not disappoint! Diana sent me this beautiful tin she made! I'm definitely going to find a special place to keep it. She also sent me a card with a pin on it. The pin comes off and you can wear it. It's a girl swinging from a heart, and she really swings! So cute. Thanks Diana!!

Oh happy day! I think that I have finally figured out how to load photos from my phone! Here we go! This is the mail art that I received from Patty and boy is it fun! The wooden postcard I received first then the next day I received the little quilted one. I was very surprised to see that Patty was able to send them through the mail just as they were, as post cards! Thanks Patty they are wonderful and I really was surprised! Hugs from Cottage Grove Oregon.

Peggy - your package came yesterday and it was such a bright spot. I had a long day with family health concerns and it was great to see all the glitz and bright images of the paper plaque. It is designed on both sides so I can periodically turn it for a change. I love the paper flowers and the fabric heart yoyos. Thank-you so much - and thank you for the add ons - the lucky lady bugs, word search and Englebreit pin. If you took a picture before you sent please post it. My old camera and new laptop don't seem to like each other. Thanks and Happy Days to you too! (Yes I like Fall - I like the change of all seasons except when winter overstays it time.) Becky

Dear MJ Farmgirls!
What a wonderful thing Mailart swap is! I have loved being a part of it this summer! I will be pulling back and taking a breather in the months going forward. I am a homeschooling mama and between getting started with the new curriculums and making sure food is on the table and our animal babies are fed.... I am not finding time to get creative. I hope I can find time to come back again soon.
Becky, your package went out on Tuesday! Hope it finds you soon!
