Day 28: Upcycle

Written on Oct. 23:  (***See email message at bottom from Lynne! Absolutely made my day. 😊😊😊)

I'm constantly upcycling ruined env.'s, and this one just happened to be a (happy) accident when trying to create another for Papersource's Bewitching Env.'s Challenge on IG!

Made into Night themed "spooky" by covering with Sumi ink (see vid below). The lettering in the moon is lyrics to "Bad Moon Rising" (CCR).

Before. Was going to use for my Mushroom one (Day 15), but I messed up the lettering. (I started out with italic and India ink, but it wasn't turning out, so I switched to script with a Posca pen, then it didn't match.)

Addressed. 

With stamp.

Also, it's Lynne's bday this month, so I sent her a letter vs. card. (Again, proud of my idea!)

**It's messages and comments like this that absolutely make my day!

I make happy mail b/c I have so much fun being creative with it and using my lettering. It's also fun to get it in the mail, but I'm at a point (and have been for years) where I love sending more so than receiving. Then, to get feedback like this is just so wonderful....makes me happy to make someone else happy.

Love all my snail mail pals!!
