Bath Abbey Postcard

Looking back at making the postcard I think when looking up different postcards I think next time maybe go with something a bit more colourful or brighter. But I do like the postcard I did chose.

I chose a old postcard from Salem of the witch house, Which I tried to use as the idea for my postcard.  New Orlean base on the Mardi Gras which again looked old but had more colour on it and the another postcard from Salem more like a painting of a church with the path way.

Finding the right background for the postcard was easy, Adding the colours to the photo was difficult. Since I'm so used to photoshop I did have some trouble with it but at the end I finally go the colours on. I did use the same colour from the which house for the church. The sky I did try to use the colour from the salem postcard but ended up just using brown and silver (Brown the sky, Silver the clouds) But it never looked right but I just left it but it did look ok. At the end it wasn't quite how I image it to be, Not what I had vision, But for a first time it was good.

What I would do differently?

Differently I would like to have redone the sky and find a way to be able to keep the sky how it is but just to be able to change it to the same colours as the sky in the The old witch house, Salem postcard.

Does it appeal to your choose audiences?

I think it does appeal to my chosen audiences because I tried to make it an older design and I think older people would like this especially if their also religious they'll like the Bath Abbey in the background.
