If you mass-produced this Pi day piece, it would definitely sell!!! I’d put it on my wall as a print at work!

I match the stamp to its location on a map. In the case of Oudtshoorn, C. J. Langenhoven and Pauline Smith both used to live in the town.

A couple new cards made last night.

I saw a post on Pinterest showing framed stamps organized by color. Kind of like a rainbow! I knew I wanted to create something similar. I received a large amount of stamps from one post-crosser in China last year. In addition to the stamps she sent me (I can’t remember her user name to add) I decided I would attempt to peel off some of my favorite stamps from post cards I have received. It was a lot more difficult than anticipated! It does seem, oddly enough, that European countries have the best stamps for removing and re-sticking! Pretty proud of this project. Hope you enjoy!

I received some more polaroids from “Photodarium” calendar from @wurzelsofie back in January, and while I knew without a doubt I wanted to make more cards with them, it certainly took me a while to get around to it. Well, I have been working on these cards for the last couple of weeks - not because it’s an elaborate or time-consuming project, but simply because I wasn’t feeling particularly creative or inspired, and these were a great little project to make something without thinking too much about it. After all, if you have an image and some text, adding everything else isn’t a difficult task :grin: It was an enjoyable process!

I love the colors of the “amusement park” one

I just looked at the Internet about that calendar… and ordered one :blush:

Thank you so much! I also love how the colors of that one turned out.

And this part made me laugh :grin: I do think this calendar is amazing though, even judging by the polaroids I had, so I hope you’ll enjoy your purchase.

I originally found out about this calendar from @LaWendeltreppe and was hooked right away! :blush:

@william_tsypin Your cards are amazing as always - my favourite is the one about Brooklyn. :grinning:

As always @william_tsypin your artwork is stunning, so much talent, I always adore how neat and well put together everything is.

So glad the Polaroids are making people happy. I think wurzelsofie and I should send you some more…

Thank you! More people need to know about this calendar for sure, and I’m incredibly grateful that you’ve sent some polaroids my way :blush:

Thank you so much for such kind words! I honestly don’t think it’s talent, I just like putting papers together and gluing them down. Still, always great to know when people find things I make appealing :grin:

I think you’ve sent me an incredible amount of things already, but if you’re willing to part with some more polaroids, just let me know - I’ll be happy to swap.

Believe me it is talent! One can see this in the way everything harmonizes. This is not easy. Take it from s.o. who knows a thing or two about it. :wink:
