Whewieeee.... Did I get behind or what?

I know it's been Quite a while since I last posted up on here, and my mailbox has surely been buzzing during that time so I'll just post half of what I have archived for now, and put up more later this week. :)

First, the Lovely surprises that I have received this past month:

This is officially one of my favorite pieces of Mail Art ever (nifty collages w/ Vintage Raccoons. <3)! Created by WreckThisGirl of Sendsomething.Net, it came all the way from Italy-- this puppy mysteriously took over a month to get to me!

 Hand-printed Mail Art postcard, created by my friend Jona. She carved this blockprint depicting a list of herbs that are especially nourishing to a womyn's cycle.

Neat envie + lovely Pinecone print card from Ms. Brittany Ukulele. 

Front+ Back of a fun Asian-inspired Mail Art piece by Carolyn C.

Really Neat postcard sent from my friend Matt during his trip to Europe.
