aLTERED Postcards 2

This PC was hard to scan, fiddled with it but had to give up - the colours are much nicer in reality.

aLTERED Postcards

I am a member of a new Ebay group called Altered Postcard Art (APCA) and the first altered postcards are listed. Have a look, you might like to join! Here are my most recent on ebay (I can't get the photo download to do the second one so I'll close and re-open typepad).

A card for a friend

I made a birthday card for Kari (Inkytinker's Splats) but managed to send it a day early -- well it's better than a day late isn't it? She calls me 'Queen of Lace' but there isn't even a hint of lace on this card - must be slipping!

And one more

Managed to finish another card and listed it on Ebay - Sweetie is supposed to be looking through a porthole....

Some More Cards

I've been sluggish and tired today but felt like making some cards. So here they are on Ebay - Confessions of a Lady is an altered postcard.

It's been hectic

I've had a lovely week with family staying with me and 1-year old baby Edoardo. We celebrated my birthday 'en famille' and I got great presents. DD1 bought me a beautiful vintage quilt, DD2 and DD3 got me art DVDs which are on their way from USA, and my mother gave me a nice cheque which will be buying me more art supplies. I had just received Traci Bautista's book 'Collage Unleashed' and saw that she has a Yahoo group with the same name, and when I looked at her website found her DVD taken at one of her workshops - looks really good. If you go to her site, you'll see a video http://www.treicdesigns.com.

I have one card ready and have listed it on ebay - Monday's Child is Fair of Face =

Catching up and new cards

Sally and I were invited to Marysia's for dinner and chat yesterday and a great meal and wine of course. She showed us her art room, like Aladdin's cave, organized and messy all at the same time!! It does me a power of good to see someone else's stash, it's like I'm given permission to buy more things for art and not feel guilty.

Now, onto some new art cards I made and listed on ebay

There's a new challenge: altered postcards on
