Postcard Challenge week 1

Yesterday, I sat down with my idea book and planned out my story. 

I have my characters names, addresses, professions and a rough outline of how I intend for the book of postcards to come together.  

Of course, this morning I had a few different ideas about the eventual book will unfold but that's ok. 

The first week's country was Austria.  I decided to use a countryside setting for my postcard.  

Pretty simple watercolor painting. Hopefully my skill will improve over time. 

On the back Maggie writes her first note to Thadeus.

I didn't have any stamps from Austria nor did I take the time to download any collage sheets. 

I took a National Wildlife Federation sticker and cut it down to serve as my stamp. 

Works for me.
