Snail mail from me to you

Hi guys, just got new internet service so hope we don't have any more crashes lol, there will be trouble if we do he he,

I thought I'd blog one of the  cards I've made recently, this card is for my neighbor who is going abroad on hols and who needs to pack it in her suitcase!!! so I thought I want interest and texture but not much bulk so here is what I came up with!!

This gorgeous digi by Krista from Saturated Canary is coloured with my distress re-inkers, isn't she adorable!!!

the background papers are by Maga design from the Sofiero collection and Vintage spring basics, I got these from the fabby Sandy at Live and Love crafts, I also used some of the clocks again by Maga Design
Vintage Autumn Basics No.XVI, so love these and use them loads!!!

I have distressed the edges of the papers and added a hint of a smaller clock in the tear at the top, love doing this too,

For another bit of added detail and texture I have used a crafters workshop - Gothic Romance stencil and some home made 3D paste, I have also used a Cheery lynn  flourish die and happy Birthday dies too,

flowers, pearls, lace, cheesecloth from stash,
will link to products later!!

anything you want to ask me, feel free to do so,
will look for challenges later, got the shopping to do now!!!
