People are so creative with the ways they incorporate used postage stamp into their art. In the past I've joined a few ATC swaps with this theme. Earlier this month I jumped in and hosted one over in the Artist Trading Card Community Group on FB. I made two.
I try to keep my eyes peeled for interesting stamps on incoming mail. I think this stamp was from the UK. Cool stamps are a bonus of trading internationally! Media used on this included: acrylic paint, metallic paint pen, gel pen, archival ink, dye ink, alcohol markers, and Distress ink.
I had a lot of poinsettia stamps that have been in my stash for a long time. I think I had a hard time getting away from doing something Christmas-y with them. Love how this one turned out.
It's going to be cool seeing what the other swappers come up with. Cheers and happy arting!
Great the way you have used postage stamps! And yes the snail one is a UK stamp.
