I sew them on blank postcards.

When they are flat and even I mail them as they are, but the jeans one was quite thick and the black and white one not sewn too precise (the fabric was not flat), so I sent those inside an envelope.

Made this one as a replacement for the first one which got lost on its way to Taiwan. Hopefully this one will arrive!

Hi there
Right now I am illustrating the names of different bird formations. I like to use ink and enjoy line drawings. So far I came up with 22 different drawings…and more will come:)

I made these last month for a round robin. 1 enveloppe and 2 collage cards from leftover magazine paper. And 1 watercolour painting made on Hahnemühle postcard paper

These are wonderful! I’d love to receive one from you if I could.

They are lovely! Definitely try to make your own!
Have you maybe tried to look on Etsy, Wish or Amazon or some online postcard shops for the paper? I have mine from a Czech postcardshop. It is a bit thinner but I was printing a picture which I glued on it so that added another layer. But I was also looking for some and I am tempted to try THIS for example:

Or if possible you can try a papershop nearby and look for a sturdy paper? Then cut it to the size

I think something went wrong with uploading the photos.

Simply search for blank postcards with at least 300g/m² grammage.

Just came to share this handmade postcard I stumbled on just now:

The snail seems to be made with bits of washi tape! Isn’t it adorable?
