Art in the Mail!

I’ve been wanting to play around with mail art for a while and finally created a few pieces this weekend. My step-mom Sharon had been asking for some new pictures of the girls for months, so I figured since it took me so long to send them to her, I’d at least dress up the envelope! This piece was done on a 6"x9" photo mailer. I really had fun creating this, and I can see that it could become addicting! Thanks to Roben-Marie for the inspiration.

Omy gosh Kelly. This is beautiful. Just exquisite! I'd so pretend I was the postal worker & conveniently steal it for myself. A total felony I know, but hey that's what my mind was thinking.
p.s. Don't you love Robin-Marie?!?!
p.p.s. Thank you for your sweet sweet e-mail on facebook. I heart you so much.
