Twice as much fun

Mail art (also known as postal art and correspondence art) is a populist artistic movement centered on sending small scale works through the postal service.

My post is up over on the Rubbermoon Artsmosphere today and I would be honored if you stopped over there and left me some love. 💗💙💚💛💜 I made a short video of me making my card and matching envelope too if you're interested in watching it. :)

I'll link to their blog once my post goes live. I'm up EARLY this morning and beat them to it, lol I mean really, who gets up this early without meaning to? Sigh, so as you can tell, not sleeping real well these days. I remember when I was young I could sleep forever, now that I'm retired I can't sleep at all! ugh!

Love your mail art. Have you heard of etegami? It's something similar, japanese art cards, very fun making.

oh, this is so cute. I like how you used the same image in two different ways, one with the balloon and the other with the bird. Hope you'll sleep better next week!

Your card is SO CUTE! Love love love it. I can relate to the sleep thing. I was up before dawn as well this morning (and it still took me til this afternoon to post for PPF). No excuses, just unorganized. Heading over to your link now. Have a wonderful week ahead and hope you get a little more sleep! Hugz, Rasz

I hadn't heard of mail art but I think it's a great idea.

I really love this. There is a happiness to the mail art. Ohhh you asked who gets up this early? Well I do. Up by 4 or 5AM. Love the early morning.

Love the mail art. I have received some beautiful envelopes in the past. They are always so appreciated. I can't sleep well either along with a lot of people I talk to. I am wondering if it has to do with too much electronic activity.

Susan said...

This is too cute! And would love to receive something like this. I used to send similar bits to grandkids on special occasions. Happy PPF

Adorable mail art! I just did some for a friend...not as tidy as yours! I decorated a huge envelope. You are not alone on the sleep thing. ..many women complain about it...at the same times too! I often wonder if nature has a reason for it!great job!
