Musical mail-art by Titbelsoeur

Hello happy crafters !
I have made this mail art with a kraft envelope I have recently received, I wanted to keep the stamps that did perfectly fit with the stamps I had the pleasure to design for The Artistic Stamper.
To meet the October challenge, I have sticked music pages on it, then stamped with these stamps you may find here : Tit Belsoeur Stamps. Gessoed and distressed, then highlighted the stamps with a white pen, and now I just have to write the name and address of the recipient :

Grunge card by Titbelsoeur

Hello happy stampers,
Here is my first make for May, and I am happy to share this grunge card with you !



The support is made with a torn piece of an old LP vinyl record cover, folded in 2 and "sealed" by a ribbon, since the idea is to send it as a mail art (not inside an envelope, then). I have covered it with gesso for a grunge look.
I have used a bit of paper formerly stamped with Alphabet Soup Background & Border size A6 ©Neil Walker
The flower is a cut out piece of the Floral Open Background with 2 Free Flower stamps
And on the big green paper, I have made marks with gesso with a milk bottle cap, then stamped big hugs and kisses from Grungy Greetings #1 A6
To be fully grunge, I have stapled all papers to the support.
I will then write the recipient's name and address with a white pen and stick my stamp somewhere... maybe on the flower, although it is stapled... not sure yet...

Thank you so much for stopping by.

Mail Art

Hello Everyone,
Shilpa here,

I've got these fabulous Postage stamps(No1) from Artistic Stamper and I kept them to use for some special project... today is the day... :)
I created Post Cards.


I created 4 1/4" * 6" Post card with white card stock. I started with spraying Dylusions Vibrant Turquoise on it. I spritzed water on it to dilute the color. Next I've done Dyan's famous ghost technique, got some lovely layers. I've used many stamp stamps at the top right corner. Calligraphy Mat12 for text. Leaves stamp is from Leaves A5 set.
I stamped dragonfly twice, once on this post card and second on another white paper. Fussy cut it and adhered it to create layered effect.

I got carried away and made two more Post cards,


here I've used Dylusion's Cheery Pie spray ink and Neil Walker bird Stamp.


And on this card, I spritzed Dylusion's Dirty Martini ink and have used bird from Birds of Feather stamp set.
Hope you liked my Mail art post!

Our monthly challenge is open till 30th April with theme - Flora and Fauna.
You still have time to join in.
Thanks so much for stopping by today.

Mail Art envelope: by Zuzu

 
Yes, I am here with a postman's nightmare... highly decorated mail art.
its another quick simple project from me as I don't have full access to my craft supplies for quite a while yet. 
I know the postman needs to be able to see the address clearly so i am not sure how valid mail art really is but its fun making the envelope a wee bit more exciting than a plain simple colour.

I coloured my envelope with chalk inks and when it had dried completely I started stamping and sticking. I used the airmail look Washi tape to start with and stuck to the typical airmail colour scheme, blue and red.

i tried to add in some other post office type themes like brown wrapping paper, measuring tapes, post cards, luggage tags etc. I used the brown paper to help create a "ransom note" style on one of the quotes.
Supplies used:

Ephemera collage stamps HERE
Animal/ Bird collage elements HERE
Washi tape HERE
Journal tickets HERE
black and red stazon ink HERE
