| "1950 style" |
Since I'm trying to use up the scraps that I already have, I find it interesting how I find ways to combine them, ways I'd never thought about but work for me.
The backgrounds on these are from that Merrimekko "newspaper" I got in NYC. I searched in my tins for vintage items. I wanted a person and a thing and some writing. I was happy to re-discover the 1920's bit of advertising. It was from an article about what fears were focused on during the 1920s in the states. The old-timey Georgia Belle seemd to be perfect for the 1950s bathing beauty. These turned out okay. Now to make today's piece of Mail Art. Running late!!

I think if I had an established art blog, I'd probably just post a link on MailArt365 blog, but my blog is really for my postcard project and just a few asides, so I'm using MailArt365 as my art blog. I like having the whole thing documented so that I can look back over the year and see what I've done. Some folk do that with Flickr but I think Flicker format is not as comfortable for reading.
Ooh, love the three image cards! Neat feel to them. I like your usual commentary. Just enough, but not too much. You write like I would guess you talk, since we've not chatted on the phone...yet! Enjoy your day Mim! Hugs, Margie
