Stay at Home DIY Postcard Backside
Research has shown that the best way to be happy is to make each day happy. Deepak Chopra I will be emphasizing this message on my postcards this year: Stay at home, Wash your hands, Be safe, Make Postcards! I don’t think anyone actually needs to hear it (again), except maybe the two last messages. […]
Mixed Media Painted Postcards
The weather has been very Novembery around here lately. Swedish November is such a sad, sad thing. Yuck! Above no sun or even puffy clouds – only gray, foggy sky all month… The air is damp, the bike is damp, and it gets dark around 4 o’clock in the afternoon. Very dark. So I feel […]
Getting started with my DIY Postcards
I have started on my fall batch of DIY Postcards, and they’re going to be a fun mix of things (very mixed media) this time, I think. It feels like it’s been a long time since I created in this messy non-linear way and I had a lot of fun with this process. In case […]

Late Fall DIY Postcard Swap 2018
Fall is late around here this year. I think it’s because of the very hot summer we had, and then we have had rather pleasant weather in August, and September too. I’ve not even worn my jacket yet, so I just haven’t felt like it’s turned autumn yet… But by looking in my calendar of […]
