Description: | |
This may be series of swaps to encourage creating artwork using at least three different techniques. Also I am making it an altered postcard as there seem to be many ATC swaps floating around! The base postcard can be a postcard you hate, an ad post card or any base that is sturdy enough to mail through the post as a postcard. (do not just use paper at the very least it must be a heavy cardstock) I am not setting a theme on this one although it should be loosely based on your partners profile and avoid anything your partner dislikes or hates. Examples of some of the techniques you can try on your postcards include: Hand painting or Illustration, Stamping, Embossing, Masking, Resist, Collage, Mosaic, Digital Hybrid or traditional photography, Hand-carved prints, or gelli prints. Also I have found you can add a small amount of texture to your cards for example by adding a texture paste or tar paste and it is fine. If you want to add texture I do suggest you use a gel medium in the texture element and don't build the texture to high or the post machines will assist in adding additional and perhaps unwanted elements to your texture. The postcards can be sent written on and naked or in an envie written on or with a note (so the postcard can be sent again to someone else) -senders choice. As with all my swaps if you somehow do not receive your swap I will angel after you have properly rated a 1. |
