So you know how I love postcards...? Well, one day, after I'd exhausted my brain for silhouette ideas, I thought, "Why not use colors?" So I looked up the cover of The Lorax by Dr. Seuss and started cutting out shapes, some in appropriate papers and some that make no sense whatsoever. For some reason, I'd made it just the right dimensions for a postcard. So when I was done, I looked at it and thought it would be cool if I could have it printed. Since I had to have 100 of them made, I am now offering them in my Etsy shoppe (link on the right) for a very reasonable $2.50 + s/h for a set of five. Envelopes are available for an extra $1.
The same price applies to my Elijah Wood "Frodo and Bilbo" postcards. I took this photo of Elijah at ORC (I think it was 2006). We weren't allowed to use flash, but I took a chance and asked him because they had just cut the lights. With The Hobbit coming soon, I think these would be great invitations for a line party or screening. The back is not quite blank, in a light grey it says "Frodo and Bilbo There and Back Again" at the top.
I can also make these into wirebound blank books if you like. Basic books in this size start at $4.00 + s/h. Be on the look-out for new listings of blank books of all kinds in the coming weeks. Also, I have a third postcard (steampunks, ahoy!) that I will be posting for sale soon, so stay tuned for more info!
