Artistamps or Faux Postage

These are the scanned images of my first batch of artistamps (faux postage). I used inks, rubberstamps, paper punches, and markers. The "62" stamps also have some glimmer mist sprayed on them. I recently learned of artistamps and since I love all things associated with letter writing, mail art, or postage stamps; I had to make some.

The Three Muses Challenge this week is mail art so I will be adding a link to this blog entry on their site: http://thethreemuseschallenge.blogspot.com/

Thursday Theme - Hands

There are blogs I follow that do challenges for making cards, tags, ATCs, or whatever with certain criteria like color combinations, layout designs, themes, etc. I am finally entering one! The website is Theme Thursday http://themethursday.wordpress.com/2010/05/19/thursday-challenge-hands/ and the theme is hands. This is an ATC (Artist Trading Card) that I made with inks, rubberstamps (I carved the snail myself!), and a postage stamp.
