Yummy! Looky what I got from Fran Burras! This certainly caught my eye and put a big ole smile on my face! Isn't it super? I wish you could see the embossed gold rubber stampings. That background is after my own heart with all those delicious colors! I just have two questions, Fran. Are either of those stamps real? Or are they both your faux postage?? And are either of the cancels real or are they your rubber stamp images?? LOL. I honestly can't tell what the post office added here.
And here is the back:

Fran also sent some wonderful goodies inside. She sent me some luscious turp paper and a piece of her handmade paper -- is this the wrapping paper you make with wax on it, Fran? And also, I got three fantastic pieces of faux postage! Lucky me. I think I read on Fran's Blog, Dancing-Girl's Studio, that she used Gillian Allen's Photoshop tutorial on making faux postage that was in Art-E-Zine. Correct me if I'm wrong, Fran. I'm using that tutorial, too, to learn to do it. So I'll have some samples to share soon, hopefully.



Wanna see the mail art I sent to Fran? Here ya go:

Yes, I do LUV mail art. You are the queen of mail art. Fran's is fantastic. Can't wait to bounce over and see what else she does. And I wish to know the mystery of her postage too.
