Winter Leaves; Postcards

After recoloring my winter hike photos, I printed a few of them out and turned them into some postcards to send away to my friends that live in other areas of the country. I used a thick card-stock for the back and a thinner printed paper for the two that have a center sheet. I used regular elmer's glue, and slid them between the pages of a heavy book to dry. The finished product ended up a little curved due to the glue, so next time I plan on using spray adhesive. It's a little messier and you have to use it outside, but it works better at covering areas and laying things flat.

For the back I usually add some personal touches like stamps or stickers and then write whatever I have to say.

Enjoy!
