The theme for this fortnight's challenge is:
GOING POSTAL!

you need to use at least one of the following or all if you wish....postage stamps, post marks or /and post card, you can represent them in anyway you want be it punched or cut shapes, stamped images or designs on your paper anything you like....as long as they are clearly visible to everyone.
This time we are lucky to be sponsored by:
And the fabby prize:
So here is my creation for this challenge:
I have had all these little postcards in my stash for ages and have never used them so thought this was the perfect challenge.
I stuck them all down to my base card and used them as my backing paper!
I used Tilda on the Loose for this card and coloured her with my Polychromo pencils.
I have also used the Postcard Franked stamp on here too.
The die cut frame and base is from my very good friend Susie!
All the flowers and twirly bit are from my stash. The flowers were all purchased from Wild Orchid Crafts - and just in case you didn't know they have a sale on at the moment as they are moving premises.
This adorable little frame was sent to me by my Working Girl friend Mandy. Thanks hunni MWAH!!
I have added some Pan Pastels chalk to the frame to "age" it a little to fit in with the rest of the card.
The heart doily is from my stash and I have inked this with versamark Vintage Sepia.
The bow is cut on my Silhouette and that fabby little Postcard charm is from my good friend Susie. Thank you darling! MWAH!!
So there you go peeps, that is my Going Postal creation for you.
Right off to find some challenges it will fit.
