Cmas Postcards!

So I made this piece initially for our upstairs hallway (get it? Deck the Halls???  -- heehee), but it was the wrong size. I put it back in my pile of Cmas stuff, and when going through it this week, got the idea to convert it into postcards for thank yous!

Original piece, cut up.

They're just a tad smaller than postcard size (4.5 x 5.5) but will still work!

I added embellishments to the front, to try and disguise the lettering, and then fun borders and address lines on the backs.

Close Ups:

I love the swirl part on the left (looks like a fun, funky tree!), but I messed up when trying to cover up the s.  :/

The ink of my Flair pen smeared b/c of the paper (cheap wc).

Wooden circle painted gold.


More smearing.  Grrr.

Love how I was able to disguise the k. Added splatters too. (crimped gold paper for the square)
