In the Mail: Around the World and to My Door!

These past few weeks have kept me so occupied with creating icads and sending out mail art (not to mention spending time with the grand-baby and vacationing!) that I have had no time to blog about the wonderful things I’ve found in the mail!

Let’s have a go now…

Women of Rome by David Stafford

Women of Rome by David Stafford (back)

This piece, from David Stafford, tells the tale of Mrs. Mortadella. (Please do, enlarge to read!) I cannot help but wonder… Sophia Palumba and Mrs. Mortadella have the same… What? Do I wait for another installment? Or… Should I write the next one?

Everything from John Held arrived perforated! Love it! The artistamp sheet rocked my world! I could stare at it for hours on end and still see something I had not seen previously.

Mary Grellner sent this cache. The monochromatic photo was cool, but the collage was my favorite element.

Giovanni and Renata StradaDA surprised me with this envelope of Cavellini tribute goodies!

Hidden inside a relatively plain mailing envelope from Larry Marotta was this collaged packet, whose metro fortune tells me that a refreshing change is in my future! Hmmm… Does Larry know something I don’t? Time will tell….

Sustainable Living by David Stafford

Sustainable Living by David Stafford (back)

Whatever I did to garner two pieces from David Stafford in the span of a month, I hope I do it again! (Please be sure to enlarge to read!) Mr. Stafford informs me that this is the piece I requested… I am thoroughly befuddled!

Dan Mouer got my attention when he sent me a redux of my Observations in Orange! Boy, that piece has really gotten around!

This packing tape collage from Jon Foster made me smile! When WILL toupees look real? Indeed!

Sheri Rice’s collaged postcard put me in a thoughtful mood… What do you want to do today? Hmmm….

Guido Vermeulen never ceases to delight me with his envelopes! The contents aren’t too shabby either!

What a fun collage this was from Adrienne in CanadaDA!

Oooops! I almost forgot about the lovely piece of scented mail art from the Elgin Mansion! DK latched onto my love of patchouli and Oh! Boy! She also awarded me with my hippie girl name… Lynn Starfire Radford. My nose is still twitching!

Thanks to all for brightening my days and providing relief from bills and junk mail!

Happy Trash to you, until we meet again!
