When
having a lot of free time, creativity and inspiration often knock at my door. After
spending some time organizing my photos in order to create more videos, I
discovered that some were good enough to be transformed into post cards.
However,
the whole post card thing started when I joined a web site called
postcrossing.com. This great site helps you connect with people from all the
corners of the world by sending and receiving personalized post cards. The beauty
of it has to do with the multicultural interaction and the excitement of using
the regular mail.
I loved
postcrossing since the minute I joined – thanks to my friend Ale Ruiz -, but
the only problem I faced was the fact that it is not easy to find nice post
cards from Michoacan. There are some available at a few bookstores and at the
Candy Market in downtown Morelia, but the photos are old, and there is a small
variety.
So, after
my failed post card search, I unlocked the memories about Photoshop handling,
selected some nice looking photographs and started designing my own. I was so
pleased with the result that I wanted to share my experience with all. Could I maybe
start my own business?
