Created for a swapbot "Addicted to Mailart" swap. My partner liked fairies, but I don't tend to have any fairy images lying around. Serendipity! I bought a set of 1920's story books at a flea market that had fairy stories in it.
The base for this is a map index of Pennsylvania, where my partner lives. Unfortunately, her town ended up under a fairy...

This only took 24 hours to go from coast to coast!
I covered a regular old vanilla (yes, I know it's manilla) envelope with old book pages and I handpainted the fish!!
I am so impressed with myself! :)

Created for a swapbot swap of "box canvases". The premise was to take any box, stuff it with a little paper to hold its shape and then collage all over the outside.
I had so much fun and will definitely do this again!
Vintage book pages, acrylic paint, vintage stamps, old electrical marking numbers, and walnut ink.

Sent to FL for a swap of business sized-envies.
The size really threw me for a loop, but I managed to power through.
These 2 are made from paper gleaned on vacation and some bits on the work space at home.
Menu from Stonewall Kitchen in York,ME, Freight record from a defunct Maine railraod, misc fish, vintage stamps.

This has a beautiful vintage stamp that says Posta Romana. From Romania or is it from Italy? Not sure but it is pretty!
#152 Bingo
How about mail art, air mail Bingo!
#148 Paper cuttings, dancing people??
Don't these look like 2 people dancing just a little! This could be one of those mind tests, what do you see?

This one is going out to Paula who is certainly the Queen of beautiful digital mail art. Have been missing her posts!
