It's time to start signing up for FEBRUARY Mail Art!
If this is your first time signing up for Mail Art, please visit the topic Farmgirl Mail Art to read our guidelines.
FOR FEBRUARY, please leave a comment on this thread stating you'd like to join in. Sign-up is available through February 15. If your comment appears after you've posted it, that means you're on the roster.
It seems fitting for a long list of reasons to make our February theme one filled with love, as though we are able to send a hug via mail, let's give it a try! And as always, if the theme is not right for you, feel free to do your own thing.
I will send an email with your partner to you on February 16. Please send your Mail Art before February 28. It's a short month, so don't wait until the last minute or it will be mid-March before you know it! 
I'd like to encourage everyone to post a comment on the current month's thread when you receive your mail art. And if you can, a picture is nice. We all love seeing the inspiring art! And a quick thanks lets your partner know you received your mail art.
A couple more things to keep in mind:
1. Traditionally, Mail Art has been "secret"; part of the fun is receiving a surprise package from a surprise partner. I would encourage you not to tell your partner who you are until a reasonable amount of time has passed for them to receive your art.
2. Please be sure to include enough postage for your Mail Art to reach its destination :)
If you have any questions or concerns, please send me an email. I'm always delighted to help.
Happy Swapping and farmgirl hugs!
MaryJane's daughter,
Meg

I am a fan of interactive art! I once participated in an art journal album where each one of us had to craft a page using the same colors and same themes. We could add to the others pages. It was so much fun! xxx
Can't wait to see Dianna! |

You're welcome! I made a series of little canvas with all kind of textures. I left yours blank so you can brush on any colored glaze that you like (to fit in your home)! -^-^- |

Many thanks for the wonderful Art package from Julie the Tree Lady! Love the Owl and my wrap. Julie sent me a 'hug' and something for me to hug. Beautiful.

Morning April! Happy you liked your mail art! I love sending the hen cards because you can tape the flaps on the bottom to make them stand. I still have one in my kitchen! Hope you enjoyed the rest of the goodies! Happy weekend to you!
Lol...Sara! For sure!

Yesterday, my mailbox was holding the sweetest February Mail Art from April T. A lovely "Love" filled pocket that was filled with images of roses and forget-me-nots!! Included were the actual seeds! The pocket was crafted from pages of a book written in French! Didn't know the words, but the French words were lovely to look at!! Lace and ribbons abounded!! To start it off was a lovely handwritten note from April. What a lovely surprise on a dark rainy day!!!
You can never be too kind!
