Sunday postcard art


This weeks theme is mystic. I love mermaids so this is my postcard
I'm afraid the scan isn't a very good one. I have embossed all the card with gold holographic embossing powder and I think this is why it hasn't scanned very well. It is not as dark in 'real life'

Beautiful collage.

I love mystical themes and I bet this looks gorgeous with the holographic on it in real life - looks good here but scans never do them justice, especially with glitters and holographics.

looks great, I'm sure it's even better in person.

I think it is very intriguing. Sometimes when I have a scan that comes out dark, I switch my settings to scan "document" instead of "photo" and it lightens it.

Hello, Anne! I'v enjoyed looking through your work, too. You do quite a variety of things. Very nice "mystic" collage, and I like the "white on white" atcs a lot. Let me know if you'd like to do a trade?

Me, again. I forgot to say: Sometimes if I do a scan on the "document", instead of "Photo" setting, I get a better effect for things like this. Sometimes is the key word here.
