MA: Everyday Ephemera Mail Art Postcard Challenge

Everyday Ephemera includes but is not limited to the following: receipts, ledger papers, security envelope insides, junk mail, fruit and veggies stickers, playing cards, labels, packaging, note pad papers, shopping lists, reward or pricing stickers, magazine cutouts, discarded book pages, used tickets, postage stamps and air mail stickers, invoice papers, etc.

Using only random ephemera such as things from the above list, create a collage style postcard for your partner. Your postcard can be any mailable size and must be sent naked and stamped.

Additional elements may include paint, ink, and/or stamped images.

No purchased embellishments or elements are allowed. In other words, no scrapbooking papers, no stickers (other than those mentioned above), no purchased or printed off the Internet images, die cuts, shapes or what have you.

Have fun!
