"Sun Bird" – Card 3" x 5"

This week’s Collage Obsession challenge was “Sun.” I used a sun bird, sundial, and a sunset background.

The vintage images are from an Internet search. The font is FranciscoLucas Llana. The words are from a poem by Lord Alfred Tennyson.

This is also my first creation using GIMP 2.8.0-RC1 which is still a beta version. The official release should be coming out soon though. I still need to use version 2.6.12 to export TIF files because there's a bug with the beta version.

"The Astronomer" – Card 3" x 5"

This week’s Take A Word challenge was “Skinny” which is a template size of 3" x 5".

The vintage images are from an Internet search and the Library of Congress.

"Happy Easter" - Postcard

This week’s Sunday Postcard Art challenge was "Zetti Easter." I'm still not sure what Zetti is, despite searching the Internet and viewing a lot of Zetti artwork. So this is what I came up with, right or wrong.

The vintage images are from an Internet search.

The font is Weathered SF.

"Joyous Easter" - Postcard

I made this Easter card with a "cosmic" theme. The vintage images are from an Internet search.

The font is Xirwena.
