Daring Cardmakers - Going Postal

Afternoon everyone!

Hope you are all having a great Saturday and enjoying the lovely weather (well its been a beautiful day here in Essex).  I've been really busy on the crafting front the last couple of days - had quite a few orders to fulfil and have finished all but 2 cards - so pretty pleased with myself!

Thought I would enter the Daring Cardmakers challenge this week - haven't entered that one for a while....  So the theme this week is Going Postal so you have to incorporate either a real, stamped or die cut stamp on to your card and here is my entry:-

and a little close up detail

The background for this card I created myself using masks and distress inks.  I also added some gorgeous new trim that I purchased on Thursday - yummy!  The main image is a stamp I borrowed from a friend on one of our crafting days!  The sentiment is computer generated and the "stamp" is from a set made by Artemio.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Happy Crafting
