Mailart 365 has moved

These are all graduation cards that I sent to former student body officers with whom I worked as an adviser at Mount Jordan Middle School, and three young men with whom I worked in Scouts over the years. The cards are all on the same pattern but each is different in the details.

I made these three envelopes with strips of a single page from a decorating magazine during my lunch break on Tuesday. I added other bits and pieces to them when I had a minute or two. I must have a bit of Expressionism in me, because I can't stand to have shapes not outlined with black or some dark color. I refrained on the first one of these, but it was hard.

 This is a piece that I sent to Portugal for a Mail Art exhibit called "desAMORes." I just found out about it yesterday, and I hope that this will travel through the mail and get to Porto, Portugal before the deadline. It is a collage on 8 1/2 X 11 card stock with a geometric pattern printed on it and colored with red watercolor marker. The page is folded in half to make it envelope size. It is in the hands of the postal workers now, so we shall see if it makes it through the machinery.
