VANESSA PiCCiE


nothing to do with Nervousness or any other swipsy swapsy sites, but so so cool that it get's a post on here anyhow. yay for even more unexpected arty mail. this is from vanessa, my nomadic friend... in scotland when she did this. i'd love to have that sort of skill and patience, the detail and accuracy are a tad mindboggling. (not mindblogging as my fingers wanted me to type)

REASON #234 THAT i LOVE ViCTORiA/AiMHLEAS

POSTCARD FROM WACKYSTUFF


this one is by a guy called jeffrey who worked as a graphic artist for many a year, notably designing badges ("buttons") and magnets. he has offered me his advice (yay) and i'm stoked to have received this card. i should really take a photo of the stamps and post that too. very cool.

POSTCARD FROM PEQUAD


another beautiful card from a nervousness member, this is done with multiple rubber stamps.i especially like the image of the woman, is it a doll? puppet? dressmaker's aid? i'm intrigued.

POSTCARD FROM ETAYNE


oops... pic is a tad blurry! love the subtle colours and the quote is wonderful... this postcard is going up where i can see it frequently.
