Happy Mail

Posted on February 22, 2019 | 26 Comments

Yesterday, I worked on creating some happy mail…

I made three postcards to exchange with classmates in “2019 Year of the Collage,” online class with Carla Sonheim.

A Fish

Color and Pattern Play

Just for FUNny

This book has several excellent ideas as well:

How about YOU? Do you like to get happy mail?

I am giving away one postcard (original art) in a drawing, please comment below if you’d like to participate in one chance of winning! 😃

A winner will be chosen randomly on Thursday, February 28, 2019 and announced Friday, March 1st, 2019! Good Luck!

Cheers! 🙂

I’d love to get a postcard from you. I’ve always been afraid to send original art as it. Do you put it in an envelope?

  Hi Carol, no I’m just sending it as a postcard. I hope it gets delivered! 😍 I think the key is making sure you have a little extra postage. ❤️ And crossing your fingers! 🤞

  I helped my hubby move his mom to a memory care facility today. A big job! We found a really nice place though so we are thankful and hope she transitions well. 😊

Hard to pick a favorite…”my fate is in your hands”–what a great sentence find! I’ve been visiting my collage box oracle too. (K)

  Thank you Kerfe, that sentence came from titles of songs on the back of sheet music. 😃
