Arrows - Take Chances

Arrows is this week´s theme for the Sunday Postcard Art challenge. For my card I have combined stamps from Visible Image (text and arrows) and Paper Artsy/ Kate Crane (fishies)

 

Space and Big Alpha - stamp art projects

Heindesign has two rubber stamp mail art projects this summer themed "Space" and "Big Alpha". Both arrived in their mailbox today.

For my first card "You are not alone" I`ve combined stamps from Globeland, Visible Image, Picket Fence, Viva Las VegaStamps and Stamperia. 

My alpha card "Ein X für ein U" (a German saying) uses large stencils and a clear stamp alpha from Concord & 9th.

 

Owls - The Look

 
Look who´s watching you! I couldn´t resist Sabine`s theme for this week´s Sunday Postcard Art challenge "Owls". I love their eyes, their mysterious life (even for a night owl like me), their ability to bend their neck and so much more. I´ve painted a cute on here with crayons and watercolour on a magazine photo.

Who I am

The Sunday Postcard Art challenge asks for our favourite quote this week. As someone who studied literature and collected quotes from books I´ve read since I´ve been 16 I don´t have a favourite quote, there are just too many that speak to me. But someone I always get back to is Lewis Carroll, so my card for this week features one of his Alice quotes. 
When you´re young, you have an idea of who you are and think that you will get nearer to this person the older you get, but that´s wrong. When you get older, you explore more possible selves and changes, and that´s not bad but part of the adventure of life.
 

Tiger

This week´s Sunday Postcard Art theme is Tiger, so my big cat reminds you of not stepping back when you see a beast in front of you but to fight your fears - not easy of course.
 

Adventurous Alice

 
Alice put on the Madhatter´s hat and is going out for another adventure!

This week´s theme for the Sunday Postcard Art challenge is "Put a hat on it", so I´ve put the Madhatter´s hat on Alice using stamps from IndigoBlu.

My Beautiful Friend

"Faces" is this week´s Sunday Postcard Art theme, and of course I had many ideas for it. I ended up with a lovely face and a quote that makes you think about her sad smile.

I`ve always been more on the dark side, even if it concerns beauty. I never liked those shimmering young beauties without any background but preferred a bit of mystery behind a beautiful face. Every life has its own story, and I believe that it should be recognizable on your face, and that it intensifies its beauty.

(Stamps used here are from IndigoBlu and StudioLight.)
