Travel

 

Due to Corona, I haven´t left my hometown for almost two years now. But even before, I´ve never been on a plane or outside Europe. When I travel, I love it, but if I don´t, I´m not missing that much. I still enjoy travels I´ve made in the early 80s, and there are many parts of the world that don´t attract me at all.

But what I really love is travelling in my thoughts when reading a GOOD book - even then I prefer some regions and avoid others, but I really love exploring the world through books. 

So this is my card for this week´s Sunday Postcard Art challenge themed "Travel" (hosted by my sister, one of my favourite travel partners!). I´ve used rubber stamps from Stamperia and Kaisercraft for it

Moin MArion - du beschreibst es perfekt! Nun schlägt die nächste Welle über uns zusammen, und Reisen geht (wieder nur) mit dem Finger auf der Landkarte, im Kopf & der Fantasie.
TOLL umgesetzt!
Liebe Grüße
Katrin

Beautiful art piece. And I can relate to everything you wrote. I haven't traveled anywhere for about two years, now, also, due to covid-19. I used to enjoy getting lost in the world of reading books, but I haven't done much reading in awhile. I need to get back to doing that, because it always brought me enjoyment.

You are so right about books they have saved me the last two years. Art too is a great journey and yours is lovely.

This card is downright beautiful!
I like it a lot, really.
And as I understand you Marion ... Damn covid.
I haven't moved much over the past two years either (as a lot of us), except to visit my family.
On the other hand, like you, I love to read and my house is filling more and more piles of books (they are everywhere :)
