Signature Postcard

Image
In 2010, The Earth Ink established a "signature" postcard design with 15 little window for photos. Returning from an around-the-world trip, this design first became a "change of address" postcard with new details printed on the back. A quote from Mother Jones provides some context for this card: "My address is like my shoes. It travels with me." The postcard showcases global destinations; featuring thumbnail photos from Antarctica, New Zealand, Singapore, Jordan, Croatia, Turkey, Greece, Italy, the United Arab Emirates, United Arab Emirates, the Netherlands, Canada, Switzerland, and the United States. This postcard design has been used several times over in different contexts.  The design is customizable with customer photos and available* in  qualities of 100+. For more information, or a quote, contact:  theearthink (at)  gmail (dot) com. *available in 2014 | made in the USA | sustainably printed

Oia, Santorini, Greece

Image
White washed buildings backdropped with the cerulean blue of the Adriatic Sea are indicative of being in the Greek Islands. My visit coincided with the tourist's low season, so I had much of the volcanic island of Santorini to explore on my own. While the photos I took home are people-free, I also had a difficult time finding shops and restaurants that were open for lunch! This photo was taken in the town of Oia where a labyrinth of stone pathways leads down the cliffs of the volcano's crater. Losing oneself among the streets is an easy way to spend an entire day admiring the architecture of this town that hangs from the island's volcanic rim.
