I chose "nowhere" for the lyric and being a teenager in the sixties The Beatles figured a great deal in my musical taste, so I had to go with "Nowhere Man". Haven't a clue what the words mean but I thought the image I used sums up the couple of lines I picked out of the song.

I recently bought a set of Brusho paints and I used one of colours in my background and then I dropped bleach from a pipette onto the wet painted paper.

2 great cards. Never thought about dropping bleach - fab effect.
Oh Maggie both of these postcards are fabulous. Love them both. Fabulous images in them too and do like the Brusho/bleach effect on the second one.
Two beautiful pages, love the lyric and the quote very much. The brusho and bleach background is wow :-) xxx
Awesome postcards! The images are both perfect for both lyric and quotes you chose. A lovely post! :o))
2 wonderful cards, I particularly like the scene with the "Man on bench" stamp, it takes me back to a bench by the sea!
They are Both great cards and such apt stamps for each quote.
A great page for the quote.
Fab cards. Both look really great :)
I've used bleach before on old photographs and when I stamped on dark paper, but NEVER to achieve this effect through a pipette. That was quite clever.
I also liked your "laid back" man on the bench. Both of these were fantastic, and I'm always thrilled to see what you make for us each time using a lyric and a quote.
These are both lovely, Maggie! The bleach gives a fabulous effect!
Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog. I see what you mean about the differences - that stamp was made for those lyrics!! Love both your postcards.
both cards are just wonderful
