Grunge

 
When I read this week´s theme for the Sunday Postcard Art challenge is Grunge, two things came to my mind: Grunge music from the ninetees (which I still love) and grunge stamping techniques (that I also love as a messy stamper). So I decided to combine them, and here´s the result, a tribute card to Kurt Cobain from Nirvana. Smells like Teen Spirit is still on my playlist, and if you look closely, you´ll spy the words "große Wut in sich aufsteigen ... schmeißen möchten" and "etwas abgespannt" on the book page scraps which mean a big rage coming up and wanting to throw something anywhere and feeling exhausted. It´s like found poetry as these have been on my desk waiting for this theme, they seemed so appropriate. 

The stamps I´ve used are from Stempelbar and Visible Image.

Being Green

This post is about exclusion, so beware if you don´t like political statements - but isn´t it all about politics? 

No matter if you´re green or black or whatever colour, or whatever religion, or whatever belief, you should be a part of our society.  Please feel welcome, whatever our politicians may say to get more votes ...

And yes, this card was made for this week´s Sunday Postcard Art challenge themed Frogs, but any art is political too, isn´t it?

Happiness

 
When it comes to happiness, I'm definitely not an expert as I´ve always been more on the dark side of life. But I don't give up and hope for better days, so I've even made two cards for this week's Sunday Postcard Art challenge themed "Happiness" - maybe I'll find it one day.
