One of these was framed and donated to an art auction for the nearby elementary school our kids attended.
I can't remember which, at the moment.
The others might be framed and put in an exhibit, or not. They may eventually become Mail Art.
All, I know is that I'm having fun with hands, moths, and butterflies.
Spring is in the air!

More catching up to do -
I'm so thrilled at how our back yard/garden is coming back after winter. The plants seem to grow over night, really. It's getting very lush. I did plant a yellow calla lily, and a couple new hosta plants, but so many plants from last year are reappearing and seem stronger. Yay, plants!
These babies came from some 1960s era magazine. They've been waiting around for awhile to be used.
I added only one thing to each piece of Mail Art and called this pair "Things that startle babies."
Can you think of other titles for me?
I had to get back to circles.
My son had given me several copies of the graphic novel that was the case for his CD. The printing was off a little so he couldn't use them.
He knew that I'd do something with them.
Punching circles out of them seems ideal since the paper is heavy stock and the circles punch cleanly. I re-discovered the stick on letters, too.
These are very planetary, don't you think?
I wasn't sure what I'd do with this background which is actually a carpet, lovely, but I'd never actually put a carpet like that in our home. What better background than that to "hide" a moth.
I, also, used some press on letters that I wanted to "hide" somewhat, in the background.
Any thoughts on titles for these?
