Working from left to right :
- A letter from someone that found my address on sendsomething.net. They included the smiley face stickers, and a typewritten note. It's been so long since I've seen something typed by an older hammer style typewriter, I was surprised to see it. At least I think that's what those typewriters are called. I should look that up...

- A letter from Troy
- A card and postcard from Pen Thief. I believe these were sent on different days, but they arrived on the same day. I love the quote on the card - "The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." -Elanor Roosevelt. Thanks to Misty for including the stickers and stamps as well! I am jealous of her art skills! The cup of tea on the envelope was hand drawn. In celebration, I'm having a cuppa!
I've also learned an important lesson in the past week. I over complicate things. Instead of diving right in and trying something, I think about it. In fact, I think about it too much. Who cares if the mail art I produce is something someone might call bad or ugly? Who cares if something I write isn't perfect? It's the thought that counts. And it's all a learning experience - I can't expect to be good or 'perfect' right from the start.
I shall see you all again on Sunday for the summary :) I have lots to do before the mail goes out on Monday! Write on!
