Postcard fun


When I saw these postcards many years ago I just had to have them, and have I used them? Not really! I decided to get them out and see what I could do with them. You get a couple of larger postcards and then some smaller ones. So I decided to cut the smaller ones up and use as a background for the larger postcard. I then used a CC stencil on the card base. I added a sentiment cut from mirri card to match the edging on the postcards.

I'm entering this card into the Stencil Fun challenge for Make it Sparkle or Shine or Anything goes.

I liked it so much, I did it gain with another colourway.

What a brilliant idea Lynn, these are so pretty, love how you've combined the stencilling with the cut up cards to create that lovely background.

You made great use of the postcards Lynn and you coordinated the stencilling perfectly.

Those postcards certainly needed using to make pretty cards. I think we are all guilty of buying things and then being reluctant to use them because 'they are too nice'. Well done for making these two cards.
