Received Mail from Stephanie Blake

OH YES!

This is some of my most favourite mail that I've gotten recently. I love the collage style, I love the images chosen, I love those sad looking people and I love that little flap stapled to one side.

Well done, Stephanie, super stoked that this one got my name on it! Thank you!

Come to my Place and See How I Live

As much as this is mostly a mailart blog, it is actually a personal blog. It just so happens that I make and receive a lot of mail and that's what you guys see.

Took t the studio recently to help mah gurl out with a school project. My pleasure, especially considering these glamour shots are my pay. A couple hours well spent. This lady always gets my good side.

BIG END OF THE YEAR MAILING!

At the end of 2012, I sent out many packages to many of my favourite corresponders.

I really felt like a lacked in the mail art department for most of 2012 and this was my way of making it up to people who sent to me, regardless of weather I responded promptly or at all. For that, I thank you. One and all.

I've been a little late on the documentation, but here it is!

Recently Received Mail from KIRA

Friend of all friends, Kira is my main gurl. This can be tricky when she lives an hour away, but we keep things fresh and exciting by sending THE BEST MAIL to each other.

For example:

And inside, a heartfelt letter with lots of secrets and THIS:

A handmade sticker alphabet, hand drawn by the typographical prowess. Now I have to be honest with you, I will probably NEVER use this alphabet and save it in the archives for forever because it's just THAT GOOD. Thank you Kira!!

RECENTLY RECEIVED: MAILART BEAUTS

Mail has been flowing a-plenty these days and I couldn't be happier.
Here's a few that I've documented:


A lovely little letter wrapped up in a sweet envelope from Jen Staggs. Tucked inside were some pretty sweet old school style faux tattoos. Jen probably doesn't know this, but applying fake tattoos are my friend's and I's perfect pre-party thing to do. I wonder if Jen knows I have a big ol' unicorn tattoo on my *ahem* "chest"? That horny tattoo is really speaking to me...

This layered and sturdy little postcard comes from Jon Foster:

And last but certainly not least, one from Diane Keys. A recent fave that sits close to home, as I sent her a package of paper goods a few months back which she has utilized in a few new pieces! Check out the post on her blog here!
