Love this postcard even with the torn corner. This looks so much like what artist create with pen and ink. The creative writing on the front of the postcard just adds to mixed media art! I can see scanning this and printing on fabric and sewing up a bag. Lets see what the back looks like.
The back is OK. I think the stamp was torn off. The postmark says this postcard was mailed in 1906. This would like nice framed. One thing I will not trim it, but might digitally copy it and crop it. It will be fun to work with. Eventually I will put it on eBay.
In this blog I wish to share postcards from my collection with others, as there are many different catagories of postcards. I also will share what I am currently selling on Ebay. I like selling, buying and trading postcards. The Plus in the title is for the handcraft items I make and collect. Also for all the ephemera I collect.

What a lovely card, I say as I try to suck in my stomach to make a nice little waist like hers. Uh-oh, I'm turning blue. That is so beautiful though, everything from the picture to the handwriting and the printing on the back of the card. Simply lovely!
Love that post card and love the idea of printing on fabric. I print on fabric once in a while and sometimes forget when I see something like that..I need to start thinking outside the box with some of the OLD post cards that were my Grandmothers. :)
I love the pansy one! The colors in the flowers are so pretty! Have a great weekend. blessings,Kathleen
