Whovian Mail Art Monday

Hello Again Everyone!

Happy Mail Art Monday!

Today, I want to share some Doctor Who scene stamping on an envelope. 

Stamps Used:
Moon
Blue Police Box (Tardis)
Line of Grass
Field of Wildflowers
Straggly pine trees
Staples X
Six Staples
Three staples

Other Items Used:
Memento Tuxedo Black ink
Distress Inks (Oxides- Salty Ocean, Faded Jeans, Fossilized Amber), (Original- Blueprint sketch, Mermaid Lagoon )
Blick Markers, Sharpie, Gelly Roll pen, Prismacolor
Distress stains-picket fence

Ok, lets get started...

Start with a blank 8 3/4 x 5 3/4 inch envelope. I stamped all of my base images in Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

Next I masked off any areas that I didn't want to get ink on.

I used various distress inks to color my sky. To get the star effect, I flicked water and picket fence distress stain.

I used various alcohol based markers to color my police box, and moon. White gelly roll pen used to add detail. Grey zig marker used for added details as well.

Thank you for checking out this tutorial, I hope it inspires you to get inky!!!

Whovian Mail Art Monday

Hello Again Everyone! 

Welcome Back for another ...

Mail Art Monday with Viva Las VegaStamps! 

Some of you may know that I am a Doctor Who fan! 

If you are a "Whovian" too, then hopefully you will enjoy this envelope too!

It's also, super easy to create! 

I only used 4 stamps (but you could even just rock it with the main two if you wanted!)

Stamps Used:

Exterminate!

Brian Kesinger Dalek And Victoria

Doodle Dots

Mesh Texture 

To start I stamped Victoria and the the Dalek in black momento ink. I then masked it off immediately.  I used a business card to mask of the address box, and a traced around it with a black marker.  Under that I stamped the "exterminate" stamp.  

The red ink for the background was sponged on using red distress ink.  I stamped the two texture stamps for the background in the same red so they would just add a light texture.  I used white gel pen to add a little more texture with a few random scribbles. 

I removed all of the masks, then used a variety of alcohol markers to color my main stamps, and used a black micron to add a bit of "stitching" around the label.

The Mail Art Madness continues... Whovian and scientists!

Ok its Me Tera here with another Mail Art post! 

(this is just totally telling on myself for being a total sci-fi geek!)

I meant to share this piece a while ago but keep forgetting, so here it is:

This 1st Envelope was made using my New Tim Holtz Laboratory stamp set that I received from my mom for my birthday, as well as a few odds and end stamps  (script stamps not sure who by, The words found & finding from 2 other TH stamp sets, and some #'s from G45 sets ) I also used some black tattered angels, washi tape (TH), and vintage photo distress ink :-D

(better picture)

 Ok these 2 are both drawn by me for 2 different friends who are also Doctor Who Fans

 (I really need to get these sent out to them!!) 

This one still needs the highlights added yet, and the "TARDIS" you see on the left is actually the Phone Booth stamp that I drew up for Viva Las VegaStamps!! You can buy it HERE

they also have a Whole Doctor Who plate of stamps HERE

and lots more Whovian stamps! 

I hope you all enjoy!!
