PATTERNS Post Cards

Another mail-art group swap challenged me to use some materials which had been lying around.
The first two cards started with stenciled deli waxed paper (painted with acrylics).  Collage, Magic Mesh and paint pen were added last.

 Pictures of building details and pipes were collaged over patterned tissue paper.

I knew I was saving this department store bag for something!  More circles were added.

Pink & Yellow

Flower blossoms were few this Spring:  the crab apple skipped it's joyous pink-petaled stage, and only these peonies opened up.  In a large patch of orange poppies,  there were just a few that matured. Closer to the house, a lone iris bloomed amidst plenty of leaf blades.  I missed the usual profusion of color!  Perhaps the summer perennials will make up for it.
