The cry from Carol of Cubby Hole fame this week is.....
send me your Mail Art and make the post man smile!
Not sure the post man will smile but I quite like it.
I wanted vintage grunge.... think it qualifies :)
This will be posted tomorrow.
Since taking this photo I've distressed the TH tape, it doesn't look so stark now :)

This is fab Sue and you've used a whole host of my favourite stamps. I just discovered IndigoBlu at Doncaster the other week ........ and spent a bloomin' fortune, lol! There stamps are great and you already know I love the Choc Baroque ones.
Please let us know if the envelope arrives at it's destination.

Absolutely, definiely, vintage and grungey. You certainly achieved what you set out to accomplish. I hope the postman can find the address and doesn't think in needs a penny black stamp.

This is brilliant and should certainly give the postie something to look at and brighten his day - much better than a plain envelope.
First thing, I should say, your blog is amazing! I gain so much ideas by browsing through it! And I saw your mail art collections and I was blown away to your master pieces! So much like it! Keep on sharing! :)
Superb. I just hope the postie doesn't like it too much or it may never arrive.
What a great piece! And you certainly mastered the grunge/steampunk look1 I imagine your postman and the postman had to take his time checking this out before delivering it!
I have had fun looking at your wonderful blog!!!
This is great Sue. Did it get there?
Hugs
