ON A MISSION

Back again,

Well I have been on a mission to make one or two little flat cards.  I am most disgruntled that the postage is rising soon in UK, and I am sure I am not alone so I set myself a little Challenge.  This is the first one I have come up with so I wonder what you think?  It is really hard not to clart them up with the lovely embellishments but it had to be really flat for flat rate postage.  Flat to me means pretty boring and I must admit it was pretty boring to make too!   So - not a ribbon bow, flower or pearl in sight!  I am thinking to do this successfully the image and the papers really must take the lead, I must remember that when I do the next one.

Die-cuts:  Nestabilities, Memory Box and Marianne
Stamp:  Cuddly Buddly stamp and the image has been coloured by a very dear friend of mine.
Machine Stitched
Doily and Cheesecloth from EBay

Thank you for looking today,

Judy x

  8. A gorgeous flat card for posting Judy. Great machine stitching and I love the image and the lovely flourish die cut at the bottom. I too cannot believe how much postage is going up at the end of the month. I will be stocking up before hand.
