Celebrate Spring with Mail Art

March 13, 2018 by Nanette

Welcome to my first Blog Hop with Amy’s Inkin’ Krew!

The theme for this hop is “Celebrate Spring” and will be celebrating with some more mail art! My previous posts on this fun art form can be seen HERE, HERE, and HERE 🙂

Now, I’ve used three stamp sets and a set of markers that I will feature today. But this is an Inspiration Post, so use some of the great stamp sets and coloring tools you already have 🙂

All the images on my envelopes were first stamped with Basic Black Archival Stampin’ Pad and then colored in with Stampin’ Write Markers. I drew in horizontal address lines just for reference. They aren’t really necessary 🙂

The following envelope was made with Stampin’ Up’s Hanging Gardens Stamp Set.

 

This next one was done with the Picture Perfect Birthday Stamp Set. I used a Tombow Brush Pen to letter in the “happy mail.”

And these two were done with the Flying Home Stamp Set. (All materials used are listed below).

Be sure and check out these other great “Celebrate Spring” posts by wonderful, creative women!
