Rather than pick some of my more conventional 'envelope art' for this edition of PFF, I'm going to let you see the Thank You notes that went out after our successful trip to Bozeman, Montana, for the Little Bear Antique Show, held on the same weekend as the Sweet Pea Festival. Artists set up their booths in Lindley Park, and although I consider myself an artist, I believe my work is more attractive to those interested in all things VINTAGE.
I did not include the mailing address labels for any of them, as some of these folks wouldn't want their mailing address available in this venue. The last one, for Pat, is because she was a very gracious hostess who invited us to spend Saturday evening with them and share her table and some wonderful conversation with those of us who have an enduring interest in Old Paper.
If you are interested in more postcard images for Postcard Friendly Friday, please visit Best Hearts are Crunchy, as you'll enjoy a number of other images from old to new which have gone through the mail. Since today is Southpaw Day, I think I fit right in!
Cool items, Dave! :) We should collaborate, someday.
ReplyDeleteYou made these? I am in awe! These are just wonderful. I am inspired.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love old maps, as well as your lettering. Happy PFF!
ReplyDeleteThose are really cool. I wish i could draw letters like that.
ReplyDeleteWoW!!!!! Love the maps, the stamps, everything about how you put these together. You ARE an artist. Happy PFF!
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful objects I love all the little special details, in fact everything about them.
ReplyDeleteWonderful thank you cards. I am sure all that received them were pleased. How great to get something personalized. Thanks for sharing. Happy PFF and thanks for stopping by.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the correction on my Casey Jones postcard. I knew that but got my words mixed up. so I corrected it. Love Helena Mt where I have relatives and visited often. My uncle then cousin owned Capitol Ford.

P.S. Love your decorated envelopes
Great to see you had so many thank-you notes to write. Lovely way to build goodwill and a following. Wishing you more similar successful outings!
ReplyDeleteWho wouldn't be thrilled to get this in the mail? In this day of quick e-mail messages, it's always nice to get a handwritten, or in your case, handpainted, note. Simply lovely. And I love the car in the previous message, too. It is really a testament to your drawing and painting skills that I keep forgetting these are actually painted on the original document.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Dave - I still cherish my Queen of HeArts you sent me! I can imagine how thrilled your recipients will feel when these come through the post!!
