Whatever happened to handmade postcards? #3

Postcards for two participants. This is postcard #1.

I created a master board on the recycled card board adding acrylic paints to it. This will be the background for both postcards. I then cut two pieces 4x6" postcards out of the masterboard.

Mermaid mail ARt

I decided to create a postcard and use a clear stamp with memento black ink pad for the mermaid. Another idea was to make a scrapbook postcard. I added foam tape on the back of the mermaid for a 3-D effect. I finally added a handmade embellishment with text on it.

Monochromatic green postcard

The trees, the forest are witnesses to all they did. They still continue to rape the original human and trees on Mother Earth. This race is always in war to steal resources for their kind. In war with nature, the original people, animals, Mother Earth, air, the SUN, the Universe. Everyone and everything is their enemy. Their goal is destruction on and of Mother Earth and her children.

You'll see their military in the middle of the postcard. A very important resource is food (fruits in the postcard). There is no such thing as "trade" when the one in need for the resource stole the land and now say that they own the land of the original people of Mother Earth or when the original people have to trade based on the rules and justice of their enemy, who refuse to give back what is not theirs. It is that time, though! Time for change and peace. It will be their last war!
