benevolent postcard studio: march

The inspirations for my March postcard were a button stamp from Paper Source (an image from which is blown up to ginormous proportions, above) and the fact that for the first time, my BPS postcard recipient was a guy.

I created a simple paper collage on the front, depicting part of a green Oxford shirt and a dapper striped tie embroidered with a monogram--a J for my penpal's name.

On the back, I wrote out an Emily Dickinson poem, contemplative and a bit melancholy as her poems often are.

I hope the card made its way safely to its destination--this time a village on the coast of Nova Scotia!

  1. I love it! I guess you have gotten really good at making J's by now.

  2. Thanks, Grace! Yes, I was so happy that my penpal's name started with a J, too, so I didn't have to figure out how to make another letter.
