Two mail art envelopes and a zetti skinny




I have completely fallen in love with creating mail art envelopes. All these things were created for various swaps on swap bot. Many of the elements came from the amazing Effi who provides enless images for absolutely free. You can find her here

These are gorgeous Astrid, you are well and truly into Zetti and you do it so well. I fancy a go of this myself, but have no idea what swap bot is! Would love it if you can enlighten me. Cheers Ann.

These are outstanding.

I love these as well Astrid, brilliant. What is a swap bot please? Do you bind these envelopes like pages in a book? Totally fascinating.

Hello Astrid, so nice to meet you! Your blog is lovely ... and your artwork is candy for the eyes!!! So divine are your thoughts in your minds eye ... your colors and combination's are mouthwatering!

I found the freebies you offered, of the gorgeous backgrounds. Thank you, so very much! I will use them to house my poems and verses, as I am always on the hunt for treasures to encase my words. When the right ones do come about, I shall give credit to you for the use of said background and a link to your blog!

Have a blessed and blissful week!

Just got a whole lot of new stamps from a brilliant place called the Stamp Smith. This is the image that I first saw on Docraft and really liked. I asked the friend who has used it in an ATC, where she got it. Well she borrowed it from a friend who got it from ebay as a one off. But.... it had a title. I googled the title, and hey presto found the site. They have great stamps and offer a really friendly fast service. I highly recommend them!
