On Our Travels with Darcy's Post Card Challenge - France




















Here we are in France. My postcard is a stamp from The Paris Collection by Darkroom Door. I stamped it with Stazon on glossy card then masked it and stamped text and crackle around the image. I added the colour with DInks Antique Linen, Faded Jeans, Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain.
I used these same colours on my book page which I also stamped using more images from the Paris Collection. The flap of my page is a freebie from Free Vintage Digital Stamps. I added more colour to match it to my page.
So enjoying seeing every ones postcards and thank you all for your kind comments here on my blog.
