dc: LETTER





 In the night I wrote a  letter  to dear Mano
I added a few old photos from the fleamarket for her tiny boxes project to it
 and fold it like that and fixed it with masking tape:



The whole act reminds me on the pretty movie 'Bright Star' of Jane Campion... so you, too?







 In the morning through the pouring rain I walked to the post office to buy some pretty stamps... close to a field of peonies and smiling Franz Beckenbauer (the young one).








Look at those stamp... it isn't really pretty but 'Soccer Delighted Germany' (and me...) !


Now I hope that the ink did not wishy-washy 
because of the rain and the letter will arrive just in time to dear Mano, our hostess of this 
week's drawing challenge with... LETTER!

For more correspondence have a look at her amazing world, please.

    your letter is a big treasure for me!
    I think your post must be shown to every child in school: how to write a letter and how can I make a great delight to someone.
    thank you so much! :-) mano

  13. What a perfect romp! I love this journey of the written word, done in the light of candles with a stick pen nib made of metal on paper made from plant life fibres and created with the human hand and heart and walked to a post office to be mailed...and then the waiting...to receive the missive. The whole thing is just so perfectly great! Thank you for sharing Ariane *smiles* Norma
    p.s. I was thinking that a great theme would be 'little' book, or 'tiny' book.

    lucky mano!
    also, your kiddlets on the tree tops! Oh my. How Greta would love this. Fun and challenging time while in the woods, what could be better?

    Love
