I think it was Dina Wakley who introduced me to the term "Asemic Writing". But as a lover of handwriting, handlettering and calligraphy, I´ve always loved the look of letters as a graphic element. For my first card above I´ve used a stamp from Dina and another one from Darkroom Door, but though I liked the result, I wanted to go forward and made this second card below using the same border from Darkroom Door but added my own handwriting and some Dada Stamps from Heindesign, and I think this tells the story much better: Asemic Writing is about the graphic design of letters, and the concept of Dada is to tell nothing serious, so I´ve brought all this together. I hope that my samples inspire you to show us your own interpretation of this theme! I´ve picked "Asemic Writing" as this week´s theme for the Sunday Postcard Art challenge and can´t wait to see your interpretation of this theme!

Totally awesome postcards.
Such a great theme, I never knew what Asemic writing was, yet have seen it so often.
I really enjoyed creating my postcard.
Moin,
zwei ganz tolle Inspirationen! Und ja Dina Wakley passt das echt super zum Thema. :-)

Your pieces are fantastic, and I love this theme. I searched around to find examples of it, but I think my end results might not fully match what the definition is. (I might make another one. This was such a fun theme to do!)
Sorry Marion I forgot and left it as a draft. It's posted now.
