Today I received 11 envelopes in my mail box for our Mail Art swap - yes, 11! The stack was this high:
I received 4 envelopes from Barbara DeLisle, 4 from my new local friend Susan Stewart, one from Monica Smith, and one each from Teri Calia and Jo Ann Reichert -joining the other three I had already received from both of them, hooray! Three of Teri's envelopes arrived in 3 days and the one that arrived today took a week. Two of Jo Ann's envelopes arrived in 3-4 days, one took a week and the one that arrived today took 10 days!! (mail early!)

I came across an interesting website today called
Postcrossing, a postcard crossing/exchanging project. It looks quite intriguing and I have bookmarked it to join later. One thing that caught my eye was a post on their blog about how the Mail is sorted. Since we are in the middle of this swap with the sorting of mail so relevant to our project, I thought you might like to take a look at this post and video on
Mail Sorting. The video is really very interesting & funny, take a look if you have time.
I will be back soon with photos and updates on Barbara, Susan, JoAnn & Teri as
all of their mail art pieces or safely with me now!
