Artful Times -- Postcard from abroad

For my postcards for Artful Times I have chosen Paris and India, both of which I have been lucky enough to visit.
The background for the Indian one is from and old Indian book, coloured with fabric paint. ( Left overs from a fabric printing course, where the paper was used to clean the brayer) The images were  stamped on various papers. The Taj Mahal was stamped on paper dyed with tea.
The Paris one was on a piece of Tim's papers, coloured with distress inks, and then stamped with the various images. The image of the Eifel Towers was stamped on a separate piece of card.

I love both of these - there is something special about travel designs.

Both lovely pieces, i see you have been drawn by the similar shaped buildings in both places. So glad you have managed to visit both iconic cities, you have captured them both beautifully:-) xxx
