Happy, Happy New Year mail artists! I had so many fun swaps with you all last year and I was delighted countless times as I checked my mail box. It seems that our creativity is boundless and I am anticipating another fun year ahead.
It's time to sign up for January Mail Art. If this is your first time signing up for Mail Art, please visit the topic Farmgirl Mail Art to read our guidelines. Then leave a comment on that post if you want to participate and I will contact you.
FOR JANUARY, please leave a comment on this thread stating you'd like to join in. Sign-up is available through January 15. If your comment appears after you've posted it, that means you're on the roster.
Since it's a new year, what do you say we incorporate something new? Perhaps a challenge with our monthly theme? I'll volunteer to choose first. January is National Book Month (my favorite), so this month's theme is Books and in this particular case, Books will also work well as the challenge: use a book(s) in your project. As always, you are free to not follow any themes or challenges at all. And as always, I welcome your feedback about the changes I've made 
I will send an email with your partner to you on January 16. Please send your Mail Art before January 31.
A couple of things to keep in mind:
1. Traditionally, Mail Art has been "secret"; part of the fun is receiving a surprise package from a surprise partner. I would encourage you not to tell your partner who you are until a reasonable amount of time has passed for them to receive your art.
2. Please be sure to include enough postage for your Mail Art to reach its destination :)
If you have any questions or concerns, please send me an email. I'm always delighted to help.
Happy Swapping!

Welcome to Mail Art Tamara, Lynette, DL, and Marcy I have contacted you each by email; please let me know if you haven't heard from me. Can't wait for the swapping to begin. Has anyone else started on their offering yet? You can tell I'm excited about this one!

Portia I'm glad you found us! Do you guys think there's a better way to let everyone know we've moved? There's a post from Carol pinned at the top of the swap forum regarding our new home, but I'm wondering if everyone is seeing it?

| I understand it doesn't necessary have to be a book art project - right? Just a suggestion. |
