I had great fun creating a "home" for my art doll, (see below). This was made out of a padded envelope and will become the folder in which I will send her to whoever will get her as this is for a swap. The idea for this was not my own but Constancet's. I asked her permission and she was happy for me to use her idea. Mine looks quite different but you can find her fantastic work on her flickr
This is the folder open:
This is the front when the folder is closed with a place for the address
And this is the back where you can see how the folder closes:
I wonder what the postman will think, - I have sent my altered envies through the post but never anything as big as this, but apparently Constance does it all the time and I have to say I have received some amazing mail art from her in the past.

OMG this is absolutely unique.
Stunning house Astrid. Unbelievable work.
I'd be so very excited if I received a package such as this! This had to be very time consuming. There is no resemblance to a plain packing envelope here at all. It is just phenomenal!
Your talent never ceases to amaze me, Astrid. Thanks for the link to Constance as well. Inspirational stuff!
You continue to blow me away with your wonderful creations Astrid.
