Going Postal

Do you get the winter blahs? Do you like finding fun mail in your mailbox? I do, and I am sure most of you like to find a handmade card, post card and other objects of art that are handmade arriving at your door anything fun and not a bill.

Well, if you are like me...I love getting fun mail. So, would any of you who read my blog like to trade with me some mail art...1 for 1 It can be a postcard, card, tag, atc or an empty, sealed, decorated envelope that you have created.

 

This morning I cut some dry cat food boxes to make into post cards. I cut the box down to the size I wanted and then cut and ran a base paper thru my Xyron . I then adhered the paper to the front of my cut cardboard 5 x 7 card. You can also paint on the cardboard and then collage over it to your hearts content. The address and message side I just leave plain with maybe a little stamping on it.

Since I like the Wizard of Oz..they were the first post cards that I put together this morning.
You say Wicked like it's a bad thing
Road to Oz
I don't have anymore of those clear envelopes to send these post cards thru the mail, and so I will be giving them a coat of Mod Podge to protect them as they go thru the mailing process.  I will write my message and the address on the other side.

Sealed empty envelope mail art.
