the Traveling Card

This is a project I am working on - eventually I want to hand out these cards to friends, family and people who are traveling, and on their travels I want them to hand the cards out to other people who are traveling. Eventually I envision the cards being spread all over the world. I plan to create a companion website (www.thetravelingcard.com) where people can upload their whereabouts and track the card's progress. The site isn't up yet - but I think it will be a really rewarding project.

The process was fun - had to set metal and wood type and letter press them using old techniques. Then after the fact, I silkscreened the stripes.
