Alphabet Postcards ~ A and B

Postcards. A unique way to send a short message to someone. Short, sweet, and to the point! And 'snail mail' is so much fun to receive. With the computer age that we live in, the main items we receive in the mail are bills, advertisements, and during certain times of the year political 'stuff'. I know, get with it! But in days gone by the postman brought us letters from family and friend. Love those e-mails I receive and sometimes they make me laugh out loud. So family and friends....keep 'em coming!

I love the challenge of creating...and this challenge is an interesting one. Deciding how I would create the series, and recently seeing (on line) an article concerning 'paper cutting', I decided that this was the was I would create each postcard. So, I began the process. I decided that each would be unique in itself with only some of the lettering being the same.

I began with graft paper to design the postcard. Drawing (tracing) the areas that would be cut with an exacto knife. After the initial cuts were made, I taped using a tape runner colored card stock in specific areas, then re cut those areas.

I was concerned about mailing them, but they were received without any problems.

Always pray and Be kind...wonder sentiments we should all live by.

Now...on to the next challenge...C and D! I'll post when they have been mailed!

Until next time remember...kiss long, love deeply, and dance like no one is watching!
