Microscope Mailer Swap - Partners Assigned

[Holly]

I received this lovely mailer from Rachelle today-- she sent me a beach themed one-knowing that I just felt the need for the beach.

My mailer to Honey will be picked up by
the postman tomorrow. It is packed, sealed
and ready to fly.
Honey you should have it by Saturday, Monday at the latest.
I'm a teensy bit off on my mailing, I got busy at work
and forgot to address the package for 2 days. Sorry.

I got mine.. I got mine.. from Rinda and man it's so very cool IRL (if you peeked at her blog). Rinda, I've got this sitting on a dresser near my art table for my 'muse' inspiration...thank you so much...love it! So what did you use to get all the bumpy texture on it?

The front, back and inside left side are covered in fabric and adorned with beautiful fabric flowers, cut outs, and cute, little, shiney-winged, 3-D bees. Then she also added texture and paint.

Thank you so much, Holly. I love it!

I am glad you like it Sue. I started this 3 different times, with 3 different ideas, and none seemed to mesh until this one.

Beautiful work Holly!

These are all so awesome! Julie, to answer (belatedly), I used crackle paint, applied very thickly, to get the bumpy texture.
