The listing, One-of-a-kind handmade blank altered art greeting cards using vintage international postage stamps has ended.
Greetings, and welcome to my auction of a set of two of my handmade cards using actual vintage international postage and some simple hand-drawn graphics using pencil and marker on brand-new, store-bought acid-free heavyweight Kraft pre-folded blank cards with matching blank envelopes.
I love "snail mail," paper and vintage postage, and making these cards is a way of combining these loves.
The cards measure 5.5" by 4."
The winner of this auction will receive the two cards pictured. They are blank inside and come with a blank matching envelope. As I mentioned, the paper stock is heavy and sturdy. I am not by any stretch of the imagination a trained artist, per se, just a creative soul with a love for making things, especially with paper and vintage items. The images you see here are scans (not photos) of the front of the cards. On my monitor the colors look true to life but please be aware that one some monitors they may look different.
The stamps I used for these two cards come from Poland, Malta and Mauritania, and I won them on Listia!
Thanks for looking, and thanks for your bids. If you'd like to see previous cards that I have offered, please check my completed listings. Please feel free to email or comment with questions. I have decided to offer free worldwide shipping in an effort to "get these out there." :)
