New Mail Art has arrived!

I have received new mail art this last week! I have gotten some really interesting things from some folks out there. Mail art afficionados art some of the best recyclers out there, and we often re-use cardboard from food cartons and other items to make our mailings out of. In this first picture, I have some examples. One is from Jon Foster, and it is made of a piece of cardboard and masking tape, with some felt tip marker writing. The next is a solid piece of cardboard, with a collage on one side from Jose Manuel Figuiredo of Portugal. The last is a copy of a painting of the sender's father's painting. It comes from Brazil! in the next group, I have some trading cards m,ade by "Medwolf". He is quite the eccentric if I do say so, lol! Love his cards!!He also decorated his envelope or "envie" as we mail art people call it.

Last but not least, we have three great postcards or "pc's", the top one from Jared in Pompton Lakes, NJ, the middle from Talyn, in Idaho, and the last one from "sendmeamillionpostcards.com".
