Distressed Postage Due
Every once in a while, I make a card that I feel is one of the better cards I have created. Today's card (on the left) is just that~~in my opinion. Very Vanilla cardstock, Early Espresso ink and a little sponging was needed together with the Postage Due stamp set and the sentiment from Wetlands. For some reason this card speaks to me. So I wanted to try recreating it in different colors. I tried a couple of greens--no! Calypso and Cajun--no! How about Crumb Cake with Early Espresso? Yes! On this card I also crumpled up the stamped image. The sentiment and heart stamp are from the Around the World stamp set, a set I finally used! I know one item that will be on my next order: the Postage Stamp punch. The stamp images do need that zigzag edge and when I receive the punch, I will replace the "stamp" on each card. Have a great day!
I am married (50 years now~~oh my!) and have two children:
Jen and Matt. Jen and her husband blessed us with a beautiful granddaughter who is now 19 years old. I am also a "grandma" to five dogs, 2 birds and more! My dog, Charlie, is our spoiled Shihtzu and I have a cute little parrotlet, Nipper, that is 8 years old.
