Hello Mavens!

@stevado sent me a lovely note requesting that I create another "sleeve" mail art! So . . .

For this swap you'll have 1 partner and you'll create 1 piece of mail art for your partner.

The theme of the mail art is Christmas! The TWIST is that your mail art envelope must be sent in a plastic sleeve and it must have some type of moving pieces between the envelope and the plastic sleeve. Sort of like a snow globe! When you shake the envelope your "pieces" should move around. You can use little die-cuts, punches, confetti or anything else you'd like--so long as it moves around between the envelope and the sleeve.

  • Envelope must measure at least 5" x 6" but can be larger

  • Theme of the mail art is Christmas!

  • Envelope must be sent in a clear sleeve

  • There must be moving "pieces" between the envelope and the plastic sleeve.

  • Please include an inexpensive, flat surprise (Christmas-themed) for your partner.

I've done several mail arts this way and the best sleeves to use are the ones that stickers come in. They're so clear and strong.

Have fun!!
