First Hand Made Postcard

Today I received an address for someone who shared the same favorite color as I do. You'll never guess what color it is. Anyways, in her profile she asked for hand made cards. Since I'm wanting to get into the whole mail art thing and being creative I decided to take up the challenge. I've always enjoyed cutting up magazines and making little collages of things I like. I have hundreds of magazines in my art room closet and piles upon piles of magazine clippings and ephemra. I think I may make more just to have on hand for the next person who enjoys a hand made card.

I also used clear packing tape to seal the front side and make it more sturdy and durable for the post.
