Welcome back! It's day 4 of my GIU week & I have had a blast with my projects. I thought it would be fun to share something unusual today. If you are a regular follower of Unity on Facebook you know Angela and Whitney are well known for making tags to sample their new releases during live broadcast on Facebook. Their creations are always beautiful, but I never know what to do with tags, so I make Postcards. It's like a tag but not. LOL! :) Today, I'm sharing two random & weird postcards. If you like them, let me know! I'd love to send them to two randomly chosen commenters. YAY! Happy Mail!
I love Raggedy Ann and La La Loopsy dolls. When I saw Unity's Frazzled image, I thought she resembled a perfect mash-up of the two. I had to have her. I had a lot of fun with this piece of mail art. My Frazzled girl is surrounded by layers of paint, stenciled shapes, ink, torn bits of book pages and she's standing in a Row of Poppies.
The background on this one also features grungy wire and paint splatters from the Blow Your Mind kit.
On my second Postcard I used the kit You Are Cute. Aren't they CUTE?! GAH! I think these two look great uncolored, surrounded by vibrant colors. I accented the background and her balloon with the trio of Hearts from the kit, Love Bug and used the gungy dots from the kit, Everything on the hill.
Both Postcard images paired perfectly with the sentiment, "You're weird, I like that." from another favorite, called Carlee's Christmas. Both cards also have highlights of shimmery glitz and are sealed for protection. :)
I made a card last year, using only little girl from You Are Cute. It's easy to get more from combo images like this by using them solo too.
Thank for stopping by today! I hope you enjoyed your visit! Be sure to leave a comment if you'd like to win a Grab Bag of 25 stamps from Unity Stamp Co. Also, If you'd like to be entered to receive one of these postcards let me know which you'd like to pull from your mailbox. :) Join me tomorrow for my last GIU 2017 project. <3

ReplyDeleteI've never tried or heard of Unity Stamps before, and I came to see what the fuss is about.

ReplyDeleteGreat back grounds with those fun stamps. I never know what to do with tags if I make them. I LOVE the idea of postcards!
ReplyDeleteI just love that "Frazzled" stamp. Quite frankly it looks a lot like me on any given day. LOL. Your postcards are so bright and cheerful. I just love the simple backgrounds with watercolor. I am really into watercolor right now. I would love to win some Unity stamps and sentiments.
ReplyDeleteQuirky, adorable, excellently executed! You have it going on, girl! That row of poppies had been in and out of my cart for months. Now I must buy.
ReplyDeleteOh My, all of these are just so quirky and adorable. Love them.

ReplyDeleteI would rather have weird than something so frilly and mussy.
ReplyDeleteI think these cards are darling. Love the stick figures
thanks for sharing.
What fun!
ReplyDeleteHaha! That one with the Frazzled doll is so cute! My two girls love La La Loopsys, so I would love to get that one. Your backgrounds make these quirky stamps even better and I'm thinking that I need to get Frazzled now! Thanks for a wonderful week of creative fun.
