Winter Holiday Greetings - Post Card Exchange - Postmark by MONDAY NOVEMBER 27th - UPDATED

This mail art theme will lend itself to various designs and techniques.  Some possibilities might be collage, paint, ink, rubber stamps, even Zentangles!  (Don't be shy- if I can do it, you can do it!  Call it "Scribbling with a purpose."  And I'll admit it:  I am NO expert..)  Other possibilities may include collage, paint, ink, etc.

Zentangles are described as being realistic or abstract shapes (outlines) whose spaces are filled in with repeating designs or patterns.  They can be black and white or filled with colors.  Some of the examples online remind me of what we used to call "doodling."
