Liberate Your Art


Our snail mail generally consists of magazines (fun), junk mail (not fun - wasteful of resources), 
and bills (definitely not fun).
But, this summer was different because I participated in Kat's Liberate Your Art postcard swap.
Here's the deal, each artist sent Kat 5 postcards of their work plus stamps. 
Then, Kat did all the work of distributing them - Thanks Kat!!!
So, I received colorful art cards from 5 different artists.  Now that was very fun!
The postcards pictured above were from Kirstin, Darlene, Urban Muser, 
She Dreams of the Sea, Catherine, and Kat (links added where given).
Such a treat!  Thank you ladies.


I've decided to continue the postcard goodness by offering a group of 6 of mine.
For a chance at this freebie, just leave a comment.
If you want to double your chances, tell me if you are a follower of my blog or become one now.
I'll announce the winner in a week, or so, and ask for your snail mail address.

P.S. I had my postcards printed by MOO and found the quality to be exceptional.

    Hello Anna
    I am a participant in the Liberate Your Art!postcard swap. And just bloghopping from Kent, England. Nice to meet you and I'm happy to follow you about!

    My blog is not showing the thumbnails of other artists' work at the bottom - if you know how to enable this, I hope you will have time to let me know.

    Best wishes

    Ann

    Oh wow. The postcards you received are all so wonderful. But I have to say the ones you created are absolutely stunning. I'm partial to roses, and if the others are pictures of jewelry you have created, I have to say they are gorgeous. Thank you for sharing everyone's work!

    Hi Anna!

    This is such a good time! I totally agree that this made the daily trip to the mailbox lots of fun :)

    Your postcards are beautiful (so vibrant - I am definitely going to have to consider using MOO in the future) and the ones you received are great!

    Your postcards are so beautiful! I used MOO a couple of time too (postcards for friends and family), and I think they make the best postcard ever! :)
