I recently participated in Gingersnap Creations' first art swap - a 4 for 4 postcard swap. Our theme was "Party" in honor of the Gingersnap Creations blog's 1-year birthday. My little card featured the "Party Hat" stamp from Stampington. I colored her with Copics, cut her out, and adhered her to my background. For the background I layered several other festive stamps (Stampington, Inkadinkado), along with a strip of vintage sheet music and some vintage pleated pink trim. The sentiment is computer-generated.
This was my very first art swap by mail... the only other thing I've ever swapped is ATCs with my local club, so this was a new experience for me. Let me tell you... I am so thrilled with the fabulous art I've received in this swap! I will definitely do it again. Many thanks to Shar, Ali, Debby, and Gerrie, whose postcards I received. These women are fabulously talented, and I will always treasure their beautiful art. Thanks so much ladies!
Love your festive postcard! The sentiment is so perfect, absolutely wonderful!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful postcard Jean. I love the hat and the trim!
ReplyDeleteFun postcard! Love how you added the large polkadots. They add a great touch with the hat image.
ReplyDeleteSo excited! I just got one of your postcards in my art exchange packet! It is sooo pretty! The more I look at it, the more detailing I see. I just noticed the definition layered into the background! Thanks tons!
