Vindictive Cloud



I don't know what that tree did to anger the cloud so, nor do I know why I chose to depict it on a faux postcard to my grandfather ("Gaga"= John T. "Jake" Thompson, Sr. [1912-1983]). Nonetheless, I did. I'd have thought that I would have known where the stamp should be placed by that time, but maybe not.

Interdimensional Postal Rates


A letter that I never sent to my old pal Mr. Qlxiz Qzlzi. Some stamp collector would probably pay a fortune for that uncanceled $100 Griffin stamp. Dig those crazy perforations! In retrospect, I'm surprised that I didn't use the pinking shears for that, too. I suspect that I made this at my grandparents' house, as my mother generally discouraged my use of her pinking shears for non-fabric applications.
