Mail Art Envelope

Thought I'd share the envelope I sent to France to participate in the "Mail Art Across the World" project... I was fairly pleased with the lettering until I accidently dropped a big blob of ink above the lettering.  Hence, the strip of torn paper from an old book.  

 

My husband was kind enough to mail the envelope for me, so unfortunately, I didn't have the opportunity to see the stamp that went on the envelope.  I wish I'd had the time to buy the stamp first, and make the envelope around the theme of the stamp, but I guess this will have to do.

Great envelope Kathy!! I'm so glad you participated in MAAW 2011 - thank you! I think the torn book page gives the layout a "Kathy" feel. I would have thought you planned it if you hadn't said otherwise. I did NOT notice the dropped "r" - the lettering is beautiful!

You are too kind, Seth... did you notice the mispelled word?!? I cannot believe I did that! So funny how we "see" selectively, isn't it?!? (Double entendre intended!) Thank you, Seth, I appreciate your kindness!

I think the ink blob was anything but a mistake because that strip of paper adds so much to the overall design.

You're right and I'm really disappointed with myself! But, alas, I cannot do anything about it now! Thanks for your compliments and for visiting my site, and for taking the time to leave a comment. Have a great weekend!

Hey, mail art looks lovely, that torn paper is adding nice touch to it. I am sure with stamp its looking more stunning. I missed this time :(
Sorry to point out but isn't 'r' missing in word across? but yes, its still amazing job :)
