I Won

I received some interesting mail to-day: I am one of eighteen artists whose entries were selected as winners for the 2011 Graceful Envelope Contest's Junior category.

I thought that was worth sharing, anyhow.

The image you see is a scan of my entry. The theme this year was Time Flies.

The Graceful Envelope Contest, now in its seventeenth year, is a competition in which participants decorate an envelope by hand in coordination with the year's theme and with the stamp(s) attached. Any stamp from any year can be used. The contest is organized by the Washington Calligraphers Guild and the National Association of Letter Carriers.

This year's winners will be available for viewing beginning August fifth at calligraphersguild.org.

Perhaps some you will participate in the 2012 competition; I hope so.

God Bless
