MMSA envelope from Rose

I love this set of vintage stamps, and the rubber stamping, on this envelope from Rose.

Watercolor calendar envelopes

Some more of the envelopes I harvested from a large watercolor calendar titled 'Fairies'. I continue to be impressed by how well they pair with the botanical art stamps. These are envelopes 784, 808, 793, 795, 783, 786, 807, 777, 794 and 810.

The witching hour

A great envelope and card from Rose.

Fruit stickers in

And these are the MMSA fruit sticker cards I received.

From Mary

From Dorothea and Sarah

And my favorite of the bunch from Rose.

 

Paper Source & USPS in Cahoots over Colors?

The colorful celebrations stamps seem to match perfectly with a recent Paper Source catalogue.

An envelope and collage to Kathie

And one of each to Rose.

Full moon today - the flower moon

More moon phases sent out to LWA, PinkyPost, Rose and Heleen - where I took some liberties in addressing her as Mevrouw ('Mrs' in Dutch) and calling her country of Netherlands 'Holland'.

And more for Carroll, Jackie, William, Alan, Dorothea, and Adrienne.

Music

Envelope 597 to Rose

and envelope 682 to Jan.

Ice

Great home made envelope and card from Rose.

Still more brown red and white envelopes

Number 633 to Eva

...numbers 653 and 654 to Kathie and Adrienne...

...numbers 649 and 650 to Nikki and Rose...

...and numbers 647 and 652 to Honi and Pamela. That's the last of them! 

Sea cards

Kathie called this one 'smiling sea turtle extends golden hand (paw/claw/toe) of friendship to underwater green blob'. Perfect.

And tall ships from Rose.

Insects part 2

There were several great envelopes left from the Christopher Morley calendar.

They went to the next few people in my reply to pile:

One for the host, Jean

Honi C

CJ

Pamela G

Rose H

And one to Hester where I folded the paper more like Eric's last week, as the image was too nice to cut into.

Bonus postcards

A new member of the spontaneous mail club, Brooke C from IUOMA sent me this great collage.

I always like Nancy's mail art, and this one, titled 'Red', is fantastic.

A fun, bright grid from Rose.

And first mail art from Tomoe in Japan.

With lovely stamp and cool Japanese airmail sticker.

Two more from IUOMA members. Top one is from Jason, and bottom one is from Thomas.

Fab ducks from Hester.

And another one from Nancy - collage featuring a French magazine page.

Hot off the press - this one arrived yesterday - from Marti. I didn't even know there was such a thing as National Postcard Week. It runs May 3-9 this year, so you have a few hours left to send a postcard.
