outgoing mail

I finally got my act together and finished up a long promised swap package for a patient girl -hopefully the contents will make up for the long wait!

This very small cat( he's about 6cm high) in his own small basket complete with cushion went along for the trip too....

These handmade envelopes flew off just before Christmas...

I used up my practice calendar page, a bit of wallpaper, a book page, a bright serviette and an old piece of artwork from my textiles designing days.

This is my first attempt at an art doll - she is made from collaged vintage letters, sheet music and silver foil and goes by the name of "musical wings" ( the theme was "winged"). I was much happier with her once I put her legs on the right way around....she's off to Tucson, USA.

And moi...I'm off to do a bit more work on another swap in progress. Tick, tick, tick!
