Travel postcard

 Morning and I have two DT posts today-the first one is for the Anything Stamped/Around The World challenge at Stamping Sensations.

I struggled with this theme until I found a really  old stamping set behind a box of card-World Travel Set from Rubber Stampede.

I used a piece of a background already made with inks and stamps and made a postcard.I stamped onto the background then stamped the suitcase/postcards and camera and the half stamp in the corner and stuck them onto the card, glossy accents was added to the camera lens.


 There are two prizes on offer this month---

Hi Carol. Your own background makes this postcard a standout and gives it life. We are flying over to Sydney in a week to their VIVID festival, our first overseas trip since before covid. CarolG

Wonderful collage! So much detail and such a stunning background. You really made a great travel postcard. All those stamps and postcards on it. It seems like the world is yours. I think it's great that you painted this suitcase colorful. It really stands out. And I like the shiny lenses too.
Thank you for presenting this great card in the current challenge of the Everybody Art Challenge.
