I'm back again with one of my current favourite dies which is the very versatile postage stamp collage - so many possibilities. Looking through some of my older stamps recently I came across four sets of mini stamps with curiosities, trees, scripts and mail art and I've used just a small selection for this card which I thought would be ideal for a masculine card although, to be fair, it would suit anyone.The die was cut using some script paper and there was another similar sheet in the same pad, part of which was used as a background. A simple sentiment was all it needed. I've had these stamps for many years but they've not seen ink for longer than I care to remember.
Stamps - Chocolate Baroque mini stamp sets designed by Glenda Waterworth
Papers - from a script pad by Prima
Postage stamp die - unbranded
Sentiment - stamps from Tim Holtz Sizzix (again from way back)
I'm becoming a big fan of these postage stamp designs with all the smaller stamps in each space. What a wonderful vintage birthday card.
