In the Outbox


This may be my favorite envelope in this batch of outgoing mail. I made it from the store directory map I picked up at Target. To be truthful, I actually picked up another three or four. They were just too cute. I couldn't help it.


This one features a retro fan in the shape of a cat. It is such an odd item that I find myself wishing I had one.


This one is an introductory letter going out to someone new.


This one is made from an Arby's bag and also contains an introduction.


Yet another Arby's bag envie with yet another intro.


This one too.



This one of the Mad Hatter comes from a poster advertising Barter Theatre's adaptation of Alice in Wonderland.
