Handmade Postcard
Made this odd little card out of a freebie postcard I received in a swap.
Sculpture by the Sea is a cliffside sculpture exhibition held annually in Sydney. It contains art of... mixed interpretation.

Swapbot!
I received this lovely swap as part of a "decorated envelope" exchange. I like the crazy colours and the set of stamps celebrating stamps!
The contents of the envelope were lovely too. :-)

Owl greeting
This is a postcard I made for a swap. I'd never made a postcard before, but the swap sounded fun and I reckon I could whip one up.
The theme was 'brown'. I started with the owl polaroid card and the background and went from there.
Quite happy with how it turned out!

Hello!
Welcome to my little corner of the global craft room. :-) Here I plan to record what I'm making, want to make, or what I'm inspired by.
