Mail Artsy Fartsy

I've been creating "mail art" for years, since before I knew it was called mail art. I love the idea of something arriving for you thats just so different from everything else - full of creativity and inspiration!

This swap is for those of us who want to receive something different besides bills and boring envelopes!

Send something to inspire your partner... anything you can think of, be it a postcard or notecard you've made with an inspiring quote on it, a small envelpe of ephemera, a letter about your creative process in a highly decorated envelope.

I don't just mean throw some stickers on it and mail it off. Make your entire envelope and inside of it a work of art.

I was inspired by a book that I found recently called "Good Mail Day: A Primer for Making Eye-Popping Postal Art", and I'm in love with it. They also have a blog that you can check out for more inspiration: http://goodmailday.wordpress.com

Make your mail a piece of art, and send it off to one lucky partner! This is an international swap, participants must have no recent and/or unexplained 1s, and must have a rating of 4.8 to participate. Newbies are welcome but only with a well filled-out profile. I will be checking profiles, and reserve the right to ban anyone I find suspicious. Lets all have a good mail day!
