my mailbox



hmmmm...i don't know how to change the sizes of images. the top image is a detail of the card that came in the envelope below. i love that lettering!!! clearly, one of my new penpals has been working hard with real ink and a nib or maybe a parallel pen. they are cool pens available from john neal...and i've tried one. i would love to have one, but, if i did, i would never get anything else done.

the envelope looks like some kind of resist for the big JEAN. really great envelope. online thanks....until i send a proper thank you in the mail.

  2. no, i think it is a white envelope and the jean done in yellow
    and the background looks sponged or maybe ink pads were used?
