The F4A challenge for today is to make a card putting something on it that you might see on vacation, past or present. I had this image on desk that I had already colored so I was able to make a pretty quick card. This reminds me of seeing the Mail Pouch ads on barns when we went on vacation as a child.
I do not know the name of this stamp since I only had the stamped image. I thought I had this stamp, but I cannot find it if I do. It is among the MiA craft supplies. Let me know if you know the name of the stamp.

So cool, I remember signs on barns! Too bad we mostly travel interstate highways and miss all this unique Americana! Once in Awhile we do day trips and see scenes like this!, great challenge and wonderfully designed card!

I love the rich colors on your picture...nicely done! And I just had to comment on the Mail Pouch sign...we would see those, too probably when we got to Ohio...we took a yearly trip to visit my WV grandma (so our trip was MN to WV) and we knew once we saw the Mail Pouch signs we were getting closer!..Nice memory..

This is spectacular Shirley. I love this wonderful rustic barn image with the barnboard dsp, then the wonderful polka dots for your bg- how fun! I have never seen barns with this mail pouch logo on them before, but I sure enjoyed seeing yours! ~Karen.
