  2. They look quite beautiful to me.

    Who is this lucky Jackie? It's fun to see all your envelopes to her.

  3. How interesting to me .... I've addressed MANY envelopes to my oldest son who spent 4 years at the Naval Academy. Brings back memories!!!

  4. in response to *who is jackie*....jackie and i started out as penpals. we have since met in person and now, we do not send as much snail mail, but, we were both running out of storage space, so it's probably OK that we do less mailing these days. my mail FROM jackie is even better than the mail i sent to her. i'll try to post some more samples soon.

  5. Good morning! I am the *lucky Jackie*:-) When I first started sending mail art, I thought of it as more mail than art - now I consider it more art than mail, and credit Jean with the transformation. I am still not very interested in the internet, though I am happy there is a way to share mail art with a broader audience. I have been hoping some of you might share your mail artwork also. I am starting to feel a little shy from the attention!
