History postcard designs

Design 1:

 This is the first design I created for the history postcard. I thought that I would focus on paper, and how type has got to paper. Type has come from cave drawings and evolved into books. I though ti would have an image of a old, ancient book to create this effect. I  overlaid 'History of Type'. I placed this on 'mulitiply' so that the image would be shown thought the title. I think this looks good, although I would like to do something more with what I have researched.

I created another version, although changed the levels, brightness, and contrast of the image to make it more bright, and stand out more. I think the image looks better, and I like that it looks golden representing the old ages.
