Poetry cards

Just now, I'm making poetry cards to use as fliers or greetings cards or even bookmarks depending on the size. All made from recycled materials of course! Some examples: a haiku on the back of a Japanese phonecard, an extract from a poem about tea on part of an old tea box, a poem about the world map on the timezone map torn out of an old diary..... I'm coming up with several great ideas to recycle old materials whilst publicising my work!

Hi there,

I've just wandered over here from your BC shelf after coming across you in the French forum. I think this is a superb idea and am madly jealous of how you are combining talent with originality. Are you thinking of leaving any of your poetical bookmarks in books that pass through your hands on BC?

Hi krys
Thanks for your comments. Anything I make that is specifically a bookmark will probably find its way into bookcrossing books. As may any other poetry cards i make that fit into books....
