Par Avion

This is my entry for the upcoming Sunday Postcard Art challenge where the theme is "Mail Art"- one of my passions.  This is also the first entry in my new blog; something I have been wanting to do for a while now. I wanted to design a new place to create , dream  and incorporate a bit of magic. A place filled with light and new perspectives.  Welcome to Foxglove Hollow!

    I like this new blog, so light compared to the Raven. Do I detect a sea change here? I'd love to know the story...

  4. I have a great free elements and papers site for you to try...it called 'with a Russian Dutch heart' and it has beautiful papers, and lots of really nice floral elements.

  5. Thanks so much for popping by and leaving kind comments. I love mail art too. Love your horse with wings, so beautiful. I have only tried mail art a couple of times. You should join our Paper Traders group. I would love to do a mail art swap/exchange.
    C-O-N-G-R-A-T-U-L-A-T-I-O-N-S on the launch of your blog.

  6. The black and white look of drawings is so effective, and it looks like mail art from the past, telling a story. I have always loved myths and fairy stories about winged horses, and this postcard is a treasure. All the elements fit together so well.
    Thank you for your comment on my blog and for the name of your new blog. Jez
