Sending Posting by email

I was clicking around and found a window where I could add up to 10 email addresses to receive emails each time a post is made to the blog...So this is a test to see if it happens. If anyone finds receivg the posts annoying, just let me know, and I'll take you off the list! Donna

November Trade Images

Hi there 5@ traders. It's Halloween and I have a few minutes, so I thought I would share the cards I've received so far! There seems to a common theme...like Beverley, Pamela and I were channeling the single fall leaf idea. I laughed when Pamela's arrived first, then had a real giggle when Beverley's got here. Can't wait to see Rosie and Pattie's "fall" theme. That's Pamelas' on the top with the green background and beautifully watercolored leaves...then Beverleys' with the creative corrugated cardboard background's and ribbons...followed by mine on the bottom with 2 sets of doors open on the altars and 2 sets closed. Altar stamp courtesy of Rosie at the Ocat stamp swap.

Will post the rest as they arrive! Happy Halloween! Donna

Mail Art in February

I think the mail art thing would be fun, especially since we are mailing stuff anyway. Do we all mail everybody a card?

February Trade

I would love to know how the group feels about a "mail art" exchange in February. I think 3 x 5" is the standard size postcard, and the art has to be mailed without an envelope, so it receives dated postmarks and can have fun stamps. Chime in!

Trading Schedule

Here is our upcoming schedule...

For November we are doing cards in an Autumn/Fall theme. They are to be mailed to Donna in California to arrive on November 1, with an included self-addressed pre-stamped envelope, or put in $1 for return postage. I'll post images on the blog before I mail them so we can all see the cards.

For December make your really special single card for the Secret Santa exchange and mail it to arrive at your receipient's house, or make arrangements to deliver it in person before Christmas. Please post a picture of your gift card on the blog so everyone can see it.

For January we are doing Artist's Choice, also to be mailed to Donna in California to arrive by January 1. Again, I'll post the cards on the blog before I mail them back.

Don't forget to send Donna your mailing address by email, and you will receive an email in return with our 5 addresses on it.
