:) I am to ctyankee. I just adore brainstorming and making my postcards. I'm going to start making 2 every month and send one to share with my mom. I think she will enjoy getting a smile every month. I should have been doing that all along. I have some fun ideas sketched out to try this month. I always try to incorporate a new skill or try out something different each month. I have enjoyed each month. I am already brainstorming ideas for different themes for next year.

I have a couple of the micron pens which I got at a local fabric shop. Most shops of this type have them. Mine were under 2 dollars each. They also have different thicknesses, so you might pick the one that is finer to write easier. I have made one with the muslin backing, but the rest with card stock like I use in my computer. It works great for the card side. Also we are to print or write however we choose the words POST CARD on it. When I made the one with muslin then I used my micron pen to write with, and to draw a line in the center. I made a little fake fabric stamp and added it. Then I sent it in a regular envelope. I am just silly I guess, but I just have fun making the back regular. I put most of my creations on the front side. Then again, I will probably do another that way too. :D

I actually have the front side of mine done, but have to put it all together. I won't tell all, but I tried a little shading this time with some colored pencils along with the main thing I did that's on it. It looks pretty. :)

Can we put up pictures now or do we need to wait?

Judith1005 08-01-2015 05:36 AM

Why don't your wait till I assign partners. Then ask your partner if she would like to be surprised or post a photo. I know, I really like to be surprised when it comes.

owlvamp 08-01-2015 06:10 AM
