This piece itself is large - it reminds me a bit of a kid's plastic place mat - a bit of a mystery! Thanks for such a fun piece. And for the little drawn envelope on the back with the December stamps.
Glad to see the castle arrived! And I am surprised that you posted it in your Envelopes blog -maybe thanks to the little envelope on the back :-)
It indeed looks and feels like a placemat, but it isn't :-) It is recycled-into-a-mailobject and was part of a little suitcase (all made out of this material). It could have been thrown into the plastic recycling bin but I immediately thought of postcards, seeing the picture. Now that I read on your blog you like Halloween (which still is not so known here in NL) I suddenly imagine friendly ghosts and pumpkins around this castle, but previously I thought of just a lord/knight Phillip living there with his personnel :-)
Yes, this is a mysterious castle!
ReplyDeletePerhaps Heleen will explain it a bit more when she notices that it did arrive (she expressed concern about its likelihood of making it on the back).

Well, this blog is for all my mail art, not just envelopes. Thanks resolving the mystery!
