How to Make Faux Postage Travel Cards
Yana used products from Waffle Flower to create an amazing collection of travel cards with trendy faux postage styles. Starting with white cardstock and a stencil that has different square and rectangle openings she used bright and bold ink pad colors and ink blended the background sections. Next using black ink she stamped the silhouette images of tropical trees, birds, boats and beachy designs along with faux cancellation marks and postage prices. Next she used coordinating dies to cut the postage edges, notice how some stamp sheets were kept together while others she tore apart.
On some cards she also made them look like tiny envelopes and also included tiny sentiment strips or stamped phrases.
She sharing a video tutorial on how to create these trendy travel postage card designs over on the Yana Smakula blog.
