NEON-Mail Art

Ok. Dumb Question time: if you do a little mail art postcard, that's all you have to send. If you decorate an envelope, you have to send a 'flat surprise". Why??? Isn't the point of the swap to create a decorated envelope for your partner? Just find myself wondering why it's not one or the other: a postcard mail art swap or an envelope mail art swap, 'cause it's definitely going to be cheaper and easier to just send a postcard????

@charlottenc Yes, if you decide to make a mail art postcard that is all you have to send but you still should write a brief note on the back of the postcard

If you decide to do a mail art envelope, you have to put something in it because: 1- it's LAME to send an empty envelope & 2- if you send a postcard you still will be writing a brief note on the back, so if you choose to make envie mail art the least you can do is send a brief note in the envelope

And you're right it is cheaper to send mail art postcards, but since I personally prefer making mail art envies I decided to do a mail art swap to include postcards becasue I didn't want the people who prefer postcards to be left out

New from the makers of Sharpies- NEON Permanent Markers that fluoresce under black light. I just bought some, not sure how I'm going to work them into my mail art but I can't wait to use them!
