Interesting Mail

Although I'm a little behind on some of my correspondence, I have had some interesting mail come in/out lately:
Mail art surprise from Texas with pin-ups girls.  Isn't this a great handmade illustration?
 
Elvis (in the Army) postage stamp from a postcard from Guyana.  Pretty rare to get a postcard from that country, and what a super awesome stamp!!
Pink/turquoise postcard I made.  The clipping of Barbara Eden (I Dream of Jeannie) is the 
best part.

Outgoing Halloween-themed envelope to San Francisco.  Some of the paper is glittery and the (used) postage stamp has a rather peculiar cancellation mark that is a little creepy.
Anything red postcard swap (front and back).  Had to use red ink and red postage stamps!


Snowglobe within the envelope with glitter (but no water) inside.  This one is traveling south to Tucson, AZ.
Outgoing envelope for an Autumn-themed swap I participated in.  As much as I enjoy doing mail art, the puffier the envelopes are (i.e., padded envelopes), the more challenging the artwork is.  Much easier when the envelope is FLAT.
