Awhile ago I got an email from an artist in Singapore named Sabrina Sit who was promoting her etsy shop. I checked it out and decided to order some of her portrait mini cards. They were only $4.00 and I thought it would be nice to get her started, [It was her first sale.] The cards when they came were far beyond my expectations.
I had been to her deviantart site and liked her work but her etsy shop photos did not do justice to these little delicate works of art.
I got a whole bunch of them and they are beautiful little ink and pencil lines with accents of shiny painted texture-truly special and unique.
I can see also why people get into mail art. Receiving this envelope full of treasures from Singapore was a lot more uplifting than the hydro bill and bank statement that came through the mailbox at the same time. If you want to have a similar experience for only $5.00, check out Sabrina Sit's etsy site www.abigblankcanvas.etsy.com. and order the portrait mini cards while she still has some left. You can go to her deviant art site as well, that address is on her Etsy site.
While you are at Etsy you can also go to my shop, [follow the link at right.] From there maybe you could do some browsing and spend some time exploring the fabulous world of the hand crafted and handmade.
