Postage snippets

 


Back with another postage die make. this time I used the die as a stencil and sponged ink through for each aperture. Then I did a little faux bleaching. I used two tiny snippets for the postage marks in the centre. I wouldn't normally keep snippets this small, but they were on my desk as an off cut from another project and the dies just squeezed onto them.  The images are stickers.

Off to the Snippets Playground again, I was exhausted after the Easter Egg Hunt yesterday!

What a gorgeous card you've made using die-cutting and stencilling from this terrific postage stamp die. Lovely stickers for the infills and great inky backgrounds. Congrats on die-cutting an embellishment from a tiny white snippet.

Thanks for entering a piece of homework to the Snippets Playground. Hope you enjoyed the Easter Egg hunt - you sure did a lot of digging - no wonder you were exhausted! x
