MailArt Transportation theme: to my buds in California and Michigan. Wanted to try something new, so made my envelope out of the cover of a used book "Orient Express". Found that stamping on a glossy paper is a challenge and ended up using Stazon Ink. Another new technique was to use mailing labels and run copies of stamps. It gives a different look since the stamps are cut off. Loved the postage stamps because they were transportation. Also got a chance to use my Palmer Cox brownie stamp as a return address. Tried to make it look like he is following the train. I don't always have a great selection of postage stamps at my little Post Office, but the Car stamps were perfect. Next month...Beatles songs. I already have an idea in mind.
Well done!!! Your envelope are always stunning!
