Come Sail Away

I came across some old postcards a few weeks ago, and now that the craft room is (sort of) set up, I've been working on transforming them into blank note cards.

I started with this postcard of ships in a harbor.  The postmark and message identifies it as Nantucket, Massachusetts.  The postmark is dated August 23, 1927.  

I wanted to add a decorative border to the image, but because of it's age I didn't want to make any permanent changes.  A simple border was cut from scrapbook paper, and glued to cardstock to create a sleeve.

Just slip in the postcard, score the middle, fold, and viola!  A blank card from a vintage postcard.

Once I make a few more of these I'll be listing them on my Etsy.  I'll be sure to post a link once they're officially for sale.  :)
