Mail Art from The Second Magpie

Boy oh boy have been in for a treat with this awesome package from the very talented @The Second Magpie (Sarah Hutchinson Burke). A while back I posted about some charity shop finds I bought, some being buttons, with one that a castle on it. Sarah said she had a button just like it and said she would send it too me. You are so kind Sarah :) So this button has started off our mail art swapping. The attention to detail and presentation has been carefully thought through. I received various pieces of artwork and collage, tiny tags, hand-made science based envelopes WIN!!! and the most precious vintage buttons and two lovely stamps, the one with the glasshouse on it reminds me of one of my drawings which you can see here. I also got a little pack of the prettiest flowers which are from the Mourne Mountains in Ireland. That name 'The Morne Mountains' reminded me suddenly of the Lord of the rings and this gave me such a good feeling inside, as its one of my most favourite things in the entire world. In fact if I got a Lord of the Rings inspired mail art I would probably scream with joy, hint hint ;) I'm so subtle...NOT!! I am totally in love with the Teabag collection with its beautiful description on the tag and the finger prints and dates. Even the colour all the paper has been dyed with, love all these personal little touches, what a great idea. Thank you so much for your amazing mail art Sarah it has brought me so much joy and happiness.
