Crusade No. 10





Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

This month's crusade over at Michelle Wards's GPP Street Team blog is to send mailart, so I am! I apologize for the horrible pics, but hopefully you will be able to get the general idea of them. Two were spray painted and one was painted with acrylics. I used paint, stencils, stamps, homemade stickers, and holy paper.

Two of the peeps getting them are expecting something, and the other one doesn't have a clue. I sent these three out today and am going to finish up a fourth this weekend that isn't pictured yet, but I will post it when it's done. These three contain an assortment of goodies, and an ATC will be sent in the fourth. It was a blast doing them!! I even painted the address labels to coordinate with the envelopes, then wrote the addresses on with a Sharpie. I got postage stamps with different values so I could load up the envelope with an assortment of them as well. I wonder if postal employees hate mailart or if it brightens their day?

Beautiful! I just visited her site the other day and say the mail art and thought of you. I thought I wonder if chandra does these crusades she should. I still have the envelope you sent me the Lesley Riley flyer in. I'm saving mine! I would love to do the crusades, I just can't take on another thing right now. Have fun with it!

Love your site! I also love the clock... I was inspired to put one on my blog. When I have time I'll have to try the envelope thing... looks like fun! When I've sent decorated mail art the postal people seem to enjoy it (I don't know about the mail carriers who end up delivering it, but I should think it would brighten their day more than junk mail anyway!)

Hello. My wife and I bought our house about 6 months ago. It was a foreclosure and we were able to get a great deal on it. We also took advantage of the 8K tax credit so that definitely helped. We did an extensive remodeling job and now I want to refinance to cut the term to a 20 or 15 year loan. Does anyone know any good sites for mortgage information? Thanks!

Training

Specific or task-oriented [url=http://www.pella.pl]fitness[/url] is a living soul's ability to fulfil in a definite vigour with a reasonable efficiency: seeking sample, sports or military service. Spelled out training prepares athletes to respond wonderfully in their sports.

Examples are:

400 m sprint: in a sprint the athlete must be trained to line anaerobically throughout the race.
Marathon: in this case the athlete must be trained to function aerobically and their endurance requisite be built-up to a maximum.
Many run a risk fighters and patrol officers undergo typical fitness testing to act on if they are qualified of the physically exacting tasks required of the job.
Members of the United States Army and Army Native Convoy should be masterly to pass the Army Palpable Health Test (APFT).

The Eve of 51

Just writing the title made me burst into tears.  Not for growing older...I'm thankful for every day in this lifetime.  Not for physical...
