Craft Room Travel Challenge

Hello - another Tuesday rolls round and that means time for our next challenge over at Craft-Room. I really enjoyed looking at all your male projects - some great inspiration. Don't forget to check back next week when we'll announce the winner and our top three. This week Debi has chosen the theme of Postcards or travel (or both). Debi said -

I'm so excited for it to be my turn to chose this fortnight's challenge, I chose Travel/Postcards, because I love vintage postcards, but also because I love how a travel can let us experience new things that inspire us, and in turn that gives us new ways to explore our creativity.

I made this card with Kanban stamps and some scraps of travel themed paper from my stash.  I used strips of paper which I covered with a thin layer of Gesso to blend. I used assorted background stamps over this before adding my main image, some twine and little boat charm.

I'm going to share this over at The Stamp Man where the theme is Collage and at The Artistic Stamper who are asking for backgrounds.

Can't wait to see what you all come up with - I hope you find time to take a break from Christmas cards to join in.....Esther xx
