On Sunday Postcard Art (SPA), this week's theme is BLUE.
I began my postcard collage with a beautiful, blue background image of the ocean and sky. You may not clearly see the background because I did a lot of shading with pigment inks and oil pastels. Then, I incorporated some stamped butterflies.
As I've mentioned, in earlier posts, I like to collect uplifting phrases that I find in brochures, catalogs, magazines - and even junk mail. The phrase, Reimagine You, came from an ad in a Women's magazine. The original phrase actually was, Reimagine Yourself but I cut off the final few letters.
Check out the other blue postcards on SPA.
Really beautiful.
