So, as I said I packaged up a couple of things and then I realized that the other "thing" I had wouldn't fit in the little padded envelopes I was using. And then I realized that the only other padded envelope I had was one that I had written an address on ages ago and that it had been too small for the book I had intended to send at the time. I had set it aside hoping that maybe I'd be able to use the same envelope to send something to the same person in the future. Well, that never happened and probably won't. So, I was setting in front of my computer, pondering what to do when I glanced over to an envelope I had gotten in the mail when my rocks arrived. It was all decorated (mail art!) and I loved it! Creativity struck me like a ---- like --- like -- like something that strikes! (I'm sorry, all I can think of are things like a cobra or a rattlesnake or lightning and I wanted it to be a good strike.) Anyway, I remembered that I had some handy matte gel medium, which I had never actually used, so I grabbed it.
Then I grabbed that envelope that had been laying around so long and a bag of fabric scraps and just went to town. I started in the center and covered the address. That was really all I had planned to do, but I found that I couldn't stop. Honestly, I'm surprised that I didn't continue on and cover the whole thing. Come to think of it, I just might!
What do you think? Should I continue on to the back too?

LOL @ the 'good strike.' Very creative - i think it's a good idea to continue on the back - did you? I'm sure you've sent it out by now.
