These handmade paper collaged postcards seem fitting of the summer season.  The European scenes on this fun trio of cards are all images rescued from cruise brochures I received in the mail.  Torn paper scraps, washi tape and gel ink doodles embellish them.

I love the soft twilight scene on the pink card and I named it for one of my favorite words ‘vesper’, an archaic synonym for ‘twilight’.  The “Nyhavn” card features a scene of the famous Nyhavn district in Copenhagen, Denmark.  I especially love this card for the fishing boats pictured- I adore fishing villages and boats/ships.  The purple card features a dreamy Mediterranean landscape, another of my favorites.  Europe is so gorgeous and these Old World sorts of landscapes make for great collages.
