So... work has been a bit stressful lately, to say the least, but my title refers to the Postage Challenge in the Moxie Fab World...and NOT to any impending death of a co-worker - lol! I also checked out the fabulous gallery of this week's Featured Stamper on SCS and it's none other than the ultra talented TracyMac! I chose THIS CARD to CASE for the colors and the floral/leafy elements...just love her card! I had a lot of fun putting my card together...first came the postage Nestabilities, then the oldie but goodie SU set "Letters From Friends". I revived another relic from my archives by using this mini envelope stencil. While I was on a roll using some really old stamping supplies, I chose to cut out the 2 stamps with a decorative scissors! Gasp! Who uses those things anymore?! To add a pop of color, I added the green leafy flourish and some Melon Mambo roses. Hopefully, this will brighten the day of some dear friend!
STAMPS: Letters From Friends (SU), Blue Skies (Verve)-notebook page, Hope Blooms (Verve)-sentiment.
PAPER: White (PTI), Old Olive, Melon Mambo, Basic Gray, Twitterpated DP by SU

ReplyDeleteHi Wanda! Thanks so much for playing along with the Featured Stamper challenge! :-) I'm so excited to have this honor and am really enjoying seeing the cases of my cards. Gosh, you went back to an OLDIE. LOL Some of those--hmmm--MOST of those old ones are kind of embarassing. :-) I love your use of the flowers and leaves and the added postage elements add a lot of fun to the card.
