I’ve been sending so many more cards and little care packages since the stay-at-home order began. I had to order more stamps and really needed to make some new cards to replenish my stash.
These are my favorite type of cards. Little bits of scraps, snippets from magazines and whatever else finds its way into my scrap bin.
In 2015, I wrote an article for Sew Somerset describing my process for mini-collages such as these. I now see them all over YouTube in the junk journal community. They call them clusters.
Without even realizing it, most of my recent creations featured butterflies.
Even most of these collage postcards I made for my MIL.
One even found its way onto one of the tags I made from the off cuts of the postcards.
Maybe I just have mom on my mind. She was nuts about butterflies. They always make me think of her.
WOW, these are incredible. Clusters? Did you know you started a trend? How ironic that butterflies found their way into so many of your latest cards. Even the tags are beautiful.
I especially love the tags :) It’s lovely to have beautiful things bring back fond memories
