*hcit* (or, How Cool Is That?) - thanks, Michelle
Recent re-dedication to mail art has me thinking of words to heighten an envelope's visual appeal. One source for a unique take on phrases is Michelle Ward's Green Pepper Press, home to her sheets of unmounted rubber stamps. The collection encompasses architecture, celestial, nature, alphabets, geometric and other themes. The site also provides information on how to mount unmounted stamps. On her blog, Michelle frequently demystifies journal techniques, such as stencilling, and offers monthly challenges for readers to link examples of their art through her Street Team.

That must be a treasure trove to artists who practice in your medium! You do an awful lot in here to give others the benefit of whatever you find. And your art is so different from mine, I love seeing it.
That's all. I'm glad I stumbled into this site a long while ago now.
I'm still waiting for my first Rumpus letter. sigh. I hope it comes soon.
Although, there's nothing better than waiting for mail.

hcit?
pdc.
*pretty damn cool*
Jeanette - I'm glad you happened along. I find it so wondrous, the way that happens, our chancing upon resonance. Thank you...it is a pleasure to share the inspiring work of others. xo
Rachel - I look forward to hearing what 'famous' mail arrives and am considering signing up, too. Anticipation. Yes, it's good. xo
Susan - PDC, all the silly phrases and I can hear the voices of Michelle and an identified co-conspirator as they came up with them...smacks forehead, etc. xo
Marylinn, thank you for this kind endorsement!
*claps wildly*
*blows kisses*
out of the amazing mind of Ms. Ward.
Takes a literary detective like you to seek out and point to a fellow Wordsmith. Fun phrases in rubber stamp form?....stop it. Too fun.
Michelle - Happy to endorse. It is a great collection of phrases. xo
Lisa - And so much better than having to stamp them out, letter by letter, with an alphabet set, though fun in its own right...xo
