Red Rubber Designs has a great assortment of travel stamps, which I featured on this art journal page!
The colors and bricks were inspired by the Lindy's Gang July Color Challenge.
I started with some background stamping using the Script Background and the Ancient Map Unmounted Rubber Stamps. Then I embossed the travel images onto white tissue paper using Jet Black Archival Ink and Lindy's Black Forest Black Embossing Powder, adhered with Prima Soft Matte Gel. The Paris Collage and Triomphe Collage were layered together, anchored by the Fleur de Lis, (no longer available) stamped onto paper clay.
The bricks were done with a stencil and white gesso. Then I colored them and the rest of the page with Lindy's Sprays (Black Orchid Silver, Autumn Maple Crimson, and Cajun Carnelian Red) and Magicals (Oom Pah Pah Pink and Black Forest Black). The red sprays were also added to Prima Rust Paste (Red) and applied to the bricks for some texture.
Unlike the other images, the Liberty one, was adhered over the bricks.
The wooden embellishments are from My Mind's Eye (Hello World), with the destination arrow over the Tower of Pisa.
I stamped the Fiore Dollar Stamp (no longer available) onto paper clay. Then I colored it with Black Orchid Silver Spray and Oom Pah Pah Pink Magical Shaker, followed by a coat of Queen Sheba's Silver Embossing Powder.

Buttons were the finishing touch, with hand-stitching added to them!
Thanks for looking!
