Mail-Art... send thoughtfulness

:: altered envelopes ::
I absolutely love altering anything... 
These envelopes were screaming, "COLOR ME!" 

materials:
envelope
collage papers
acrylic paints
ink pens
stencil ( personal design )
rubbed stamp - paperbagstudios.com

Thought I would share some of my altered envelopes with you. 
These are created for a swap I am hosting 
come play along with us!
Or, simply enjoy creating your own altered envelopes to send out.
Give to someone who would be delighted to receive.

We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you think. 
Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far.
