Created for the Sunday Postcard Challenge. I started by printing a postage stamp image from the internet and attachin it to a collage image. Next I sponged my postcard with Distress Ink in Peeled Paint & Vintage Photo. This was then stamped with a postcard background in StazOn Olive. Torn paper pieces were added to the base and around the postcard. These were sponged with Walnut Stain ink before applying, then the edges of the card were also sponged with Walnut Stain. Finally, the postage person was attached, and a postmark image stamped randomly in black.

How wonderful it is to get up on a Sunday morning (here in Australia) and see all these hugely creative and entertaining postage people. Yours is no exception. It is clever and quirky and altogether fantastic. Bravo.
