Friday freebie - Postal rates

One of my precious possessions is a 1974 diary in which my mom wrote recipes. While paging through it for the millionth time, I found all kind of interesting things in the first few pages - amongst other, this summary of postal rates - click here for your free copy. Have a great weekend!

Coulrophobia

. . . . . is an abnormal or exaggerated fear of clowns, which I imagine can be a real fear if a clown looks like this ;-) I played around with a few filters to create the eery look - and made a few versions - my daughter chose this one as the scariest of them all. My entry for the Sunday Postcard Art challenge evil clowns.

Darling Dahlia

This was such a fun challenge - I immediately knew I wanted to use a playing card, and the red dahlias were practically screaming to be in the same picture as this glamorous lady. My entry for Theme Thursday's Red and black challenge.
