Mail Art Envy

Mail art envy's are fun to create. This one was for a swap on swap-bot. They give a list with like 12 items or so and then you have to pick at least 6 to use on your mail art.

I have paint for my background with random stamping. 

Then added more images from both stamping and magazine cut outs.

 Also added washi tape.

Ink Monsters Mail Art

For this amazing ink monster mail art postcard, I created my ink monsters by using a fun technique where you take some ink and drip it onto paper and then with a straw, blow the ink around. This creates random crazy spots. Then you turn them into monsters and add doodles or anything you want.

Doodle Bomb Postcard

Here is my first doodle bomb. What the heck is that, you ask? Well, it's where you take a magazine image or any image really and just doodle all over it, giving it a new look. While I'm not the best doodler, I did find it to be kind of relaxing and fun.
