This entry arrived today, one of the few that I thought might still be en route. It was postmarked last week.
The title is: Marie's bicycle. The technique is quite nice. I hope Poul will let us know more about it.

Carina, Petsmo, Finland
Carina's image of bicycles coming from flying saucers is quite like a cover to a science-fiction novel. Now, who'll write me a story about this? I'm a big Sci-Fi fan.
She uses collage and paint on a firm substrate. Her stamp, on the reverse is a great Suomi Finland Bicycle design!
Thanks, Carina.

Antonio Amato, Caserta, Italy
This arrived in the mail a few days ago - Oh dear. It's quite beat-up.
There's no postage stamp. I"m assuming it got lost along the way. There is a faint cancellation on the reverse and looks like it's 11 May 2015. Could it really have been on it's way that long?
Inside was a slightly bent postcard.
There was an explanation of the technique used and a couple of bicycle images.
The technique is interesting and I smiled at the caption.
Thanks for the entry, Antonio, and perhaps you can let us know when this started it's journey.

Katerina Nikoltsou, Thessaloniki, Greece
Katerina is a very active, engaged Mail Artist. She sent two entries, including an accordian fold piece that will be fun to display.
It's so fun and playful.
Her 2nd entry has little butterflies punched out, rather than collaged on, though you can't tell because my ground is white.
Thanks, Katerina, for playing!
Feel free to send more entries! The more there are, the more joy we'll spread.
