#181, 182 & 183 Mail Art and something kinda creepy

 No. 181 is entitled something like "The Royals visit Tiny Town and notice a friend."  I really am cracking myself up with altered cards. I hope the recipients get a laugh out of them, too.
 "Mae always got lightheaded when she saw a de Kooning." This is #182
 Today's card, #183 is actually the 362nd card that I've made and will send out, as part of my Mail Art a day, since I make more than one a day. I'm almost at 365 cards! We're at the half way mark today.
I call this one: The people of Tiny Town go about their daily lives, as if no one was watching."
Here's the somewhat creepy thing. I spotted this the other day by my neighbors tree. "What the heck is that?" The center is like honey in color and shiny. My reaction was "eew" and yet I was drawn to it's alien-ness and strange beauty. Have you seen a mushroom like this?

I can honestly say I have never have seen a mushroom like that and btw I will say this again you are so crafty LOL !!!

For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again."
