Postal collage card...

Good morning, crafty friends! I'm back to share a pretty postal collage card that I created using Sizzix Snail Mail by Eileen Hull...

I created a stencil for the stamp sections using Mylar (which still need a bit of tweaking!?) and inked with Broken China Distress Ink. I picked out some botanical stamps and stamped through the windows with Memento Tuxedo Black and coloured with my Spectrum Noir pens, then added a couple of layered elements with the postage stamp images. I stamped some of the franking style stamps across the sections and die cut some small numbers in a dusky pink cardstock...

I started with a 5x7 inch card base and layered up some mats in blue and then pink woodgrain effect, adding a green polka dot strip across the bottom third. I inked the edges of the postage panel with Black and popped it up onto a slightly larger white mat using foam tape, then finished with a touch of glitter and some enamel dots and pearls...

Thanks for popping in to see my simple creation and in the words of Mr Schwarzenegger...I'll be back!
