On Wednesday, our pal **Ely Portillo** (formerly of *The Charlotte Observer* and now the UNC Charlotte Urban Institute) [tweeted about the research he was doing into vintage Charlotte postcards](https://twitter.com/ESPortillo/status/1194263666364833792).

Never short for a response, [@CLTDevelopment issued a challenge to the Twittersphere](https://twitter.com/CLTdevelopment/status/1194307594950791169), “If you could design a vintage Queen City postcard, what nine images would you put behind the letters?”

Well, we wanna’ know, too. So, we’re lending a hand. We’ve created a template where the images behind the letters are transparent.

And, now here’s our challenge to professional and home graphic designers: **[Download this template PNG here](https://www.charlotteiscreative.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Postcard-One-PNG.fw_.png)**and make your own card. Send it to us at [hello@charlotteiscreative.com](mailto:hello@charlotteiscreative.com). The winner will be posted in next Thursday’s Biscuit … and will be invited to eat breakfast biscuits with our staff.
