Surprises in
the Mailbox.

Hello, I live in a small country town overlooking a valley on the east coast of Australia .

I'm a packrat and collect lots of ephemera to add to my journals. I also use lots of items for collage art. I can always use small stencils, paper serviettes/napkins (just top layer is OK), quotes, playing cards with pictures on the back (not just patterns ) also joker cards and postcards. Used postcards are OK too. I love reading and log fires and outback camping. I make and collect zines and ATCs

I especially like cats (all domestic varieties and leopards for the wilder ones), also camels and elephants, anything to do with libraries and books ....I'm a bookaholic
I have red curly hair so anything with a redhead on it is welcome.

Artistic and creative I love to see what other creative souls are making. Reproduction of art work, illustration, hand made, your original artwork, something unusual... I appreciate the effort put into making things.

Please don't send tea or seeds, Australian border security will confiscate them.

We have converted a VW van to a camper and get away to explore new places every chance we get.

Feel free to include a birthday card for November or a Christmas card for December.

On Instagram I am @cactusislandarts

Looking forward to brightening someones day with an envelope of surprises. Not looking for penpals.

REMEMBER: EVERYONE SMILES IN THE SAME LANGUAGE
