Pokey's Postcards

Pokey Bolton over at International Quilt Festival has a fund raiser going on to benefit the Friends for Life Animal Shelter in Houston.  I pledged to make a few postcards for the fund raiser and these will be sold at Quilt Festival for $20 each. I started making 4"x6" animal themed postcards but something seemed to go wrong at every turn (I cut off too much, I got extra paint somewhere . . the usual) and so I turned to these fall themed cards which I really like.  Six cards in all in this Falling series:






I made monoprints with my Gelli Arts plate and leaves collected on one of my walks.  I really enjoy making monoprints with the leaves.  The question of the day is: Would you be interested in a tutorial on my blog showing how I made the fabric for these postcards?  Let me know your thoughts in the comments.

Now to find a place to stash these where I will remember to take them with me. . .


And stop on over to Off the Wall Friday to see what everyone else is up to this week!

Yes, yes, yes, Lisa! The ones Kaye and I tried didn't work too well.

Nice job on the prints..I didn't think to use my Gelli plate. You did twice as many as I did, but not as many as I WANTED to do...really busy time here. Nice job!

first of all - love the idea of using little art as an easy way to share it - donate it - give it! I also would love to see how you use the gelli plates!
