Recent... Alison/Martha--Funky!

Using a Pilot Parallel Pen dipped in Noodler's Navajo Turquoise and
Doc Martin's BP white... I used a 6.0 Parallel pen for the name.
Then, I added colored pencil to highlight it with purple and a
pointed nib Brause EF 66 to address the rest...
Finally, I used some oil pastels to create the gray shading.

Some funky lettering I was playing around with...
Using a .25 Hi Tec C pen to outline the same and then
colored pencils and white "Choose" pen for the highlights.
For the address, I used a Mitchell #4 broad-edged nib and gouache.

On the upper right of Martha's envelope...embellishment...
With a stylus and a soft "under surface", I wrote "love" and
then went over it with the side of a colored, Prisma pencil.

2002 envelopes.... dusting off the folder.....

I can't believe it's been 10 years since I did these envelopes, but
AT LEAST I can see the progress and how much better I am now.

I remember I used to use those brush markers a lot!  I love the cattails!

Luckily, they moved, so their address has changed and I can post these!

I used a stencil and chalk for the background on this envelope!

This was all done with watercolor... using the stamp for inspiration

I used a Pentel Color Brush for the name Melissa and the leaves

Using different colors and different hands/fonts help keep it interesting

I got inspiration from the stamp colors on this one

Using the Pentel color brush on the name, I incorporated a swirl to
house the address below the name
