Created for the Wednesday Stamper's Challenge. I printed my postcard from the internet, added a thin layer of gesso, then chalk inks in Sea Breeze & Aquatic Splash. Next I stamped a crackle background over the whole postcard using Vintage Photo Distress ink, then rubbed over the image with a issue before it had chance to dry, so that it would fade into the background. Next I stamped the text in black, added the flourishes in Broken China, and applied the collage image. You can just about see the original postmark stamps and detail if you look carefully.
