This is fantastic! Thank you for sharing all of this and happy you are feeling better, too! xxoo Marilyn
Absolutely gorgeous - such beautiful work!!
Wow! I love this. . .as usual. Just sent a little gift to a friend the other day and decorated the padded envelope with paints, stenciling, rubber stamps etc. Before decorating it the envelope looked so sad in just that plain dark mustard like color so I just had to spruce it up. Would love to win ANYTHING made by your talented hands! :O) Thanks for the chance. Warm regards, Barbara
Great video and great mail art, Roben-marie! Thanks for sharing!
totally rockin Roben-Marie!!!
wow, Roben, stunning as usual! Do you seal, the envelope after you are done, or use a gel medium or something? i am just wondering about the edges of all the pieces of paper. Are you worried they will lift?
Love Love your art! thanks for sharing!
Really great makes you want to tear some paper.
I wish I could be the winner ! This is superb !

I'm so inspired by your video that I can't wait to try sending out mail arts. I just love your work!
Roben, I love the time-lapse element of your video. I don't need to watch each piece have glue applied but seeing the steps in a faster way gets me excited to try my hand at making some mail art again. Your color choices are unique to you, as are your photos. Thanks for showing us how.
Fabulous!! You always inspire! :) Now I know what to do with all the little bits and doo dads that are on my desk! :) Thanks!
