i'm involved in two different postcard-exchange groups right now. one group is arty, the other is wordy, but i'm doing both with handmade cards. that's just how i roll, as you already know. here are a few recent ones i've made (the last card is the funnest, so don't miss it, lazyfingers!):

my new acquaintance alex, who is a friend of my sister-in-law emily, has started up an art project in which the participants trade hand-made postcards. i signed up at the "no dear" poetry reading (where julia read her lovely poem about the science of consumption!), and i received a postcard from alex last week. so this was my reply, front and back. i have digitally altered alex's last name and address, to protect the innocent, of course. i also added the fake postmark, because i am a dork.
well, not really--they like eating and sleeping too. but this is definitely puck and buttercup's favorite "activity": they sit on the poophouse and look out the window, watching little birds and insects go by. i like when they bob their heads at the same time--it's as if they're bopping to music that only they can hear.
this is a one-off pop-up book that i made in their honor.
