I mailed off 67 altered post cards this week. Linda at the post office could not believe what a big stack I brought in. And I forgot to mail one to her this time. LOL Here are a few samples of what went out.

About Me
Altering books can be a great adventure. There are no rules, no rights and wrongs. There are infinite ways to use all your favorite art supplies and skills to alter an old book. I hope you visit often. Please feel free to use any ideas and tricks you pick up here. I do this for fun, not for profit!
One of my best tricks is - if you mess up a page, tear it out! Start a new page. That's "my way".
I recently added the mail art component here. What could be easier or more fun than making a post card and sending it off to a friend? Or to a stranger?
More extensive photos of my work are shown at http://www.picturetrail.com/artsngardens
