Crafters, scrapbookers, and collage enthusiasts will love this kit-in-a-box, with 100 vintage postcards and everything needed to transform them into one-of-a-kind works of art to share and display.

Altering postcards is a fun and easy way for anyone to get creative and make a quirky, unique piece of paper art to send to a friend, use as a place setting, give as party favors, use for holiday, birthday, or greeting cards—or simply hang on the wall. The kit includes reproductions of 100 intriguing vintage postcards from 1900 to the 1960s, featuring places, people, and objects that invite playful tampering, plus 5 sticker sheets and 5 patterned paper sheets for collage. The accompanying 64-page full-color booklet is a hands-on guide to materials, techniques, tips, and step-by-step examples showing a range of methods using painting, embroidery, and layered collage. A gallery of artist-made altered postcards offers additional inspiration and ideas for pushing the envelope on creativity.
