All the postcards looked great at the end.

[@JamieJournals]

Thank you…I just keep going til it becomes something 😆

[@DeniseS-6867]

Jamie, really liked how your postcards came out. TFS

[@JamieJournals]

Thank you. My favourite is the green abstract one

[@ingunnkleppenbergseth9320]

I think I liked the arch with the girl in the corner best! It didn’t take much to alter it completely.

[@JamieJournals]

Agree that was definitely the quickest & quite effective. My favourite was the abstract one with the men in snow in the corner

Love your postcards. Just a quick questions. Do you use matte or gloss mod podge? Also I have noticed lately that when I use mod podge it looks really streakie, I’m not doing anything different and am still using the same mod podge as in I haven’t finished this container of mod podge yet but it is just drying leaving streaks. I’m using one of those sponge brushes which I have used all along. Sorry for the questions but I just thought you might know why this is happening. 😀🧐😵‍💫🥴

[@JamieJournals]

Matte Mod Podge. While it’s wet try rubbing out marks with finger tips…once dry, rubbing over baby powder not only removes stickiness but also takes down any gloss…

[@helgasmith5631]

Thanks Jamie. I’m nearly finished the gloss mod podge so will buy matte in future.

Ugly? Those are nice antique post cards. I have ugly more contemporary postcards that I want to alter.. but I love the old postcards

[@JamieJournals]

I have kept aside the old postcards I prefer
