The current theme on the Flickr Art 'n' Soul challenge group
is to make a collaged postcard from any material but it must have on it somewhere something metal.
Last week I found an unusual postcard in a charity shop,
a wooden one!

The background is a combination of acrylic paint and Distress crackle paint.
The word 'wish' is a rub on and the floral flourish a rubber stamp.
I added a bit of old text top and bottom
and edged with some metallic rub on paste.
I finished it off with a shabby bow with the metal flower in the centre.
Here's the back
I've never attempted one of these collaged postcards before
and am pleased with how it turned out.
It measures three and half inches by five and half so it's slightly smaller than the challenge calls for.
Maybe I'll be keeping it after all!
