Long distance love letter series.
My husband and I began our courtship long distance between Madison and MPLS for an excruciating 2 years. The first year, I periodically sent him this series of six "love letters." Each double-sided card was hand-drawn, sewn, collaged, etc. with esoteric imagery and symbology of our blossoming relationship, reflective of the experiences we were sharing together and apart. The complete message of course wasn't realized until the last card was received, which also included the matching half of the apparel snap introduced on the first card, so the "I" and the "You" cards actually physically snap together. Sexy, eh?

Ahhhh love. The gothic drama of it is a bit embarrassing now. I still really like these cards though, and my husband's still outrageously awesome.
