Postcard ART for the birds....

.....thought I would play with paper today so I made my 8 postcards for a swap. We were to make 4x6 postcards with birds as the theme on the front. The flip side was to have the words "Postcard" along with some writing and my name. I debated for quite awhile where to start. I began looking through my newest paper stack and found these awesome birds in the DCWV Ciao Bella stack.



They were embellished with some clear flourish stamps, flowers, words and bird stamps. I must say I really like how they turned out. At first they seemed to stark for my tastes but I aged them with some Stazon Saddle Brown Ink and ta-da....they look much more vintage now. The 8 postcards I receive back will be bound into a mini ART book. Sounds divine to me!! :)

There are 2 of each front side

and 3 different back sides.

I used 3 bird quotes for the "text" and my name, group and date as the "address".
