Mailart 365 has moved

It's been a cold, wet week and I needed to play with bright colors. I've had the image of the girl in the flower dress for a long time and I'd like to own a dress like that ... long and lightweight with loose strands of flowers. I am way too old to carry off such a look, but sometimes I think I don't care.

I love all the postcard weaves I see on MailArt365 so I thought I'd try a partial weave, just the skirt into the lemon. I wish I had cut the skirt and lemon on a diagonal rather than straight across, but I like the idea of breaking into a weave. I tried a different version of that on this postcard I made for a Swap-Bot exchange.

This is Postcrossing US-984362 and on its way to Australia today. I was very lucky to pull the address of someone who encourages handmade yesterday!

I wove strips of a butter carton into the front of a box of microwave popcorn (Orville Redenbacker Natural Lime and Salt ... very good!) and used NefFlix Origami for the heart. I've had that link in my bookmarks forever and finally get to use it. I am the Queen of Bookmarks.

I love Netflix. Greg is the Queue Master and I never peek to see what is coming next. It is always a surprise and always something great. We just watched Network, a movie both of us have wanted to see for ages. Loved it.

This is going to the Missive Maven. Her blog is one of my favorites and I'm always thrilled when I open my RSS feed and see that she has a new post. She is also my fountain pen guru.
