Playing catch-up today in the Piles of Paragraphs Creative Space as I work on my #VintagePostcardCollage26 project for the month of April! 🌸 I may be a month behind, but I finally felt up to getting this vintage postcard collage finished, and I had so much fun changing up the postcard design with beautiful roses and floral elements.
Today’s project is all about vintage flowers, collage play, and trying something a little different with layered rose images on an old floral postcard that I think may date back to the 1960s. I hope this inspires you to dig into your stash and create something beautiful, even if you’re feeling a little out of practice like I was.
My Co-creator for this challenge is Dorothy Keilty at Racoon Alley Creations. Here is her video for this month: youtu.be/KCi1WvaAFMI?si=ivRvYK6ABPpvSMO1
