Postcard from Cornwall

The current Craft Room Challenge is "Wish you were here" so I couldn't resist digging out a sheet of stamps of old travel posters which I've had for years. I think they were originally from Tanda Stamps. There are several locations on the sheet, but it had to be Cornwall for me as we are going there for a family holiday in the summer.

The stamps have a vintage feel to them, so I used a vintage "Postcard" stamp to add to the feeling, and stuck to brown and sepia tones.

Wonderful vintage card, yes the Cornwall image certainly is a Tanda stamp such a shame they closed the business earlier this year. I love how you have layered everything here, have a wonderful holiday in the deep south west. Thank you for joining us at Craft-Room challenge XOXO Zoe
