Another Postcard

Finished another postcard today. This one has been difficult in that with each step I've then put it aside as I didn't know what to do next but now kind of like it.

Mail Art Affirmation Entry

I got this postcard entry off to Cloth Paper Scissors on Wednesday and just keeping everything crossed that it gets there by the deadline of the end of the month. I really enjoyed making it and wanted to keep it but off it's gone.

Mail Art Affirmation

I was working on this postcard for the Cloth Paper Scissors Mail Art Affirmations swap but I was having trouble deciding on the affirmations to attach to it. I then learnt tonight that a friend has not been very well and so decided that I'd put on a quote about friendship and healing and send it on to her instead. I used a hindi script background, marbled tissue paper (using the shaving foam method) a paper napkin, a stamp and distress inks. Hope she likes it :)

Indian Peony ATC

Just finished off an ATC, more in the series to follow. I used a vintage book text in hindi, a paper napkin, watercolours, distress ink and stickles but that doesn't show much in this photo. Really enjoying working in a series, whilst one is drying I can be working on others. A series is also allowing me to experiment with new ideas and take the successful ones through on other ATCs.

Also working in a series of 4 for the Cloth Paper Scissors Mail Art Swap, to allow me to chose the best one to send in, more to follow on that.
