Hi,
Just had to watch Midsummer Murders before I put this on my blog........ooh it was thrilling, just love that programme.
I am really inspired by the wonderful creative artists who have submitted their Mail Art to The Three Muses, oh wow you have to see them. This is my first attempt at making one of these. I made my own envelope as the pack of ones I use for letters were not of the best quality. The Ladies were cut out from wrapping paper and gessoed. The background I watercoloured and lightly gessoed over it, then I stamped some scrolls leaving room for the address and a stamp.
Had just the greatest fun making it and long to make some more.
Thank you for popping in and for all your wonderful support and encouragement, and thank you Astrid for your great advice.
Take care, Annette x

Netty,
Your mail art is wonderful! I love the design, and the mysterious, muted colors!
Netty, I can't believe that this is your first attempt at art envelopes. You are a natural. Absolutely gorgeous, creative and beautifully designed. I love it.
Pssst - as it is almost Wednesday here (midnight in Western Australia) I can tell you to check out the Muses blog when it opens on Wednesday because yours was one of the random names pulled out of our collective hat!
Its beautiful Natty.
Congratulations for winning the Three Muses Envelope. They are waiting for your email so they can mail it to you. You lucky girl, you!
Just gorgeous Netty! I have been behind on reading blogs and you have been really busy during this time. All of your artwork is fabulous, you are very talented. Thank you so much for all of your lovely comments on my blog.
Netty, I truley love this! It's gorgeous.
I am a big fan of Midsummer Murders (it's called something else here), but it's not on very often here and they're all repeats.
Netty this is so sublimely beautiful. A totally perfect work of art! How about posting it to me LOL It's far too beautiful to put a stamp on! Thanks for your kind words
x Michelle
