I don't read newspapers, or watch the news. It's probably totally irresponsible of me and un-adult. But Little A usually tells me what's happening in the world. Besides the environmental factor there is generally no reason for not watching the news except believing things that we are told to believe. I do think we are manipulated by the media into thinking things that aren't true.
When I see newpapers, i just think of trees... and litter. On the buses around Derby they give you a free newspapers and by the end of the day, the newspapers are littered all over the bus.
here's my postcard, i've used papers, a newspaper stamp. rub-ons. tim holtz paper doll.
the beginnings of the process. lots of layers of ephemera to start with then using a newspaper stamp, and crackle paste

You are so clever at layering a perfect design and I like this news!
Your stamp is from StampFrancisco - I love it and also used it on my card (stamped and shrinked) Your Card is fantastic!!
great to see your process, Mandy, and to see how different you´ve used the same stamp as Sabine - and what a lovely card the result is!
You always make me want to try my hand at mixed media! This is a great page, Mandy. Applause from my corner.

This is fantastic Mandy. As usual, you have many great details in the background. And it's not un-adult to not watch the news. I stopped watching the news when I realized it's slanted and propaganda.
Fabulous card Mandy! X
