Pretty bad mail art

That's what it says on my first piece of mail art from Jimmy Connors, an IUOMA member.

Halloween flashback

'tis the month of witches, warlocks, potions and spells.

Here's envelope 833 that I sent to Heleen last year.

I is for Ingrid Bergman

Initially I was going to use this for the letter J, a joint issue between the US and Sweden, commemorating Ingrid Bergman. You'll have to wait and see what took its place for J next week.

The US issue consisted of one stamp, whereas there were two from Sweden. As with some other joint issues, the Swedish stamps were available to purchase via USPS. While they are not acceptable for postage, it is allowed to put them on envelopes, and I thought that Heleen (and previously Eva) would like them.



I think this collage, Face off V, was inside.

A sun from Philippe

Philippe sent me this wonderful envelope. I love how he took the colors from the stamp (which has its own sun scene) to create this sun mail art.

Squirrel time!

Definitely that time of year when squirrels are getting more active as they prepare for winter... and squirrels in the mail, too.
