"Mom
in Lion Cage" Collage Designs
|
 |
From my Unfortu-Notes© series of
collages, in which very strange things happen to presumably good
people ... here is "Mother Will Write Soon".
I think I would have enjoyed meeting the woman who sent this
postcard to her kids in 1908, scrawling "Mother will write soon"
across the bottom. Were the children scarred for life?
I love this peculiar postcard, so I
gussied it up with some paint and red thread stitches and
multicolored glitter (the digital kind, not the kind that flies off
and gets all over your house), and then it needed some dried rose
petals, to match the posies the woman carried into the lion's cage.
(Why, o why?)

NEW!
Tee Shirt, $14.95. The rosy-pink shirt is super-soft,
pre-washed 100% pima cotton, female-styled with a slightly
scooped neck and flattering shorter sleeves. (It is NOT
skin-tight, nor is it see-through!) I applied my collage image
with a thermal press, scalloping the edges for interest.
The
end result is an easy care, comfortable tee shirt: machine wash
& tumble dry. I have this shirt available immediately in a
women's size Large. (MWS-06)
Email me (Margaret at
LocalGringos.com) for other sizes, colors and cuts.

About
My Art
My designs are based on and/or inspired by my crazy huge collection
of vintage photographs, vernacular snapshots and antique postcards.
Stay tuned for more ... I dream up new ones constantly ... and I'm
happy to create custom designs just for you, too.
Forms
of Payment
I've had really good luck
with PayPal, and I think
you'll like it, too. Using PayPal, you can pay using checks or
credit cards -- and never need to give me your personal
financial info. Plus, you get buyer
protection up to $2,000. What more could you ask?
For my international buyers (outside the
U.S.), I've added
Moneybookers payment. It's similar to PayPal, but easier for
international customers to use.
Shipping & Returns
I normally ship using the
U.S. Postal Service, via First Class or Priority, your choice.
However, if you prefer another service, such as UPS, DHL or
FedEx, just
let me know.
Yes, I ship internationally -- anywhere in the
world. (If you live in Italy, I will add a nominal fee for shipping
insurance due to the regrettable number of packages lost there.)
I am very
proud of my sterling customer service record selling on Amazon
(see
feedback) and eBay (see
feedback)
for the past three years; and my newest Etsy store (see
feedback). My return policy is simple: if
you're not
happy, then I'm not happy. If for any reason my item turns out not to be
what you wanted, simply return it to me for a prompt & cheerful
refund.
Questions?
Just
email me. I'm happy to answer
your questions promptly. And I can gift-wrap or
customize any design, just for you. So drop me a line!
