Last day of college today – yay! – which might mean more time for me… The Three Muses challenge this week, set by Marie (Ozstuff), is to revisit Mail Art. Instead of decorating an envelope, I am submitting page 1 of my first Kelly Kilmer Journal, in which I have used a junk mail envelope for my main background paper!
It reads “Change is good – even if it looks silly at first glance!”
More weird weather today – sharp showers and sunshine, they say… ah well, maybe the weekend will be better, eh? 🙂

/ July 21, 2010Ahhhh clever Miss Rosie, this is a fabulous journal page with just the right amount of mail related ephemera. What’s all this about college? I’m jealous!
Rosie
/ July 21, 2010Aahhh… I did a course recently – Intro. to Teaching in the Adult Ed. sector. Passed it now, only to find there’s relatively zero funding now. Grrrr!

/ July 21, 2010I’ve seen journals with pages of these envelopes, and the windows are being used in creative ways. This is, as always, a very creative piece, Rosie, and a welcome addition to our growing collection of wonderful mail art this week!

/ July 21, 2010Great journal page, Rosie. Aren’t the patterns on the inside of envelopes amazing! (I really enjoyed the KK course I took.)
Nan
/ July 22, 2010Great page Rosie…the purple glasses are the best. I have had more fun doing Kelly K’s classes. She gets me going when I am stuck. I know I don’t have to be perfect in my journal!

/ July 27, 2010What a great idea! A decorated envelope was only one of the suggestions and we are so thrilled to receive so many different takes on one theme – especially yours, Rosie, which is original, spunky and fantastic! I love it.
