Mailart 365 has moved

236-241/365, oversized business cards found on vacation in Philly (about 3 by 4.5 inches, I think), transformed into miniature postcards. Since the USPS's mailing guidelines require a minimum size of 3.5 x 5 inches, this was a bit of an experiment. All the postcards arrived safely at their destinations, though. The one pictured was sent to Bethany in South Carolina.


242/365, a simply-decorated envelope with a print of a vintage photo, Sharpie, and a vinyl sticker. Sent to Jessica in Greensboro, NC.


243/365, another simple envelope with a bee sticker, Sharpie, and a vinyl sticker I'd been hoarding for years. Sent to Bonnie Jeanne in Pittsburgh.


244/365, simple envelope with washi tape, correspondence sticker, filing labels, vinyl sticker, and a foil star. Sent to Brian in DC.

A vintage photo of World War II bomber factory manned by the ladies! And coffee break time is calling!

A soldier falls, and these bits and pieces tell the story.

Harry's decision is . . .

I wonder what I'd include in a collage about my life. I'd be interested in seeing what other artists would include in theirs. What would you include in yours?

Using up more bits & pieces from my digital file and trying to make them make sense in some sort of way.

Another 'bits & pieces' collage, this one of a little girl sleeping in the forest, and the inhabitants of her dreams.

Another 'bits & pieces' collage!

More random images combined in a whimsical sort of way! Love the end result!

My mom & dad used to love to sit on the front porch and watch traffic go down our road. I found this photo that reminds me so much of them.

Memories of a love that lasted a lifetime.

"Oh, they tell me of a home far beyond the skies . . . " And for the homeless traveling during the depression, they just were hoping for any old home.

Fur anyone? What a posh space!

No. 4 in my series of photo collages featuring Jack the Ripper's London. This is such an evil-looking location, and I broke out in hives when I put this innocent little girl in the middle of it. Now I want to go rescue her!

My version of a vintage valentine.

I've been dying to use this photo of the big feather hat!

While working on my blog this morning, I was looking for a quote by Hemingway, and came across this one. I knew I'd be using it in a piece of mail art!

Just for fun -- happy nuns!
