Mail Art

The theme this week for the Art House Challenge is flying, so in a flight of fancy, I have composed another Haiku to tell my story.

This is their prompt.


This is my response.


posted through the mail
my words journey towards you
on the wings of love

Created in my moleskine journal, using a page divided into eight 5.5cm squares to use for the challenges.

My Companion

The Craft Barn has revealed the next letter in the Alpha Challenge, which is D.

We are more than halfway through the alphabet,
so my word for letter D is Dictionary
because at this point I want to pay tribute and thanks to the dictionary
I have been using for this challenge.

It was discovered in a charity shop.

A small hardbacked Longmans Pocket Companion
& it has been my constant companion in my crafting endeavours for quite a while now.

This is the front of the tag.


This is the reverse.


"The universe in alphabetical order."

The quotation is from Jacques Anatole Thibault,
a French writer who used the nom de plume "Anatole France".

I used patterned papers Life's Journey Pansy by K & Company
& Distress Ink (antique linen).
