About my project supply lists:
I only use and share products that I genuinely love. The product supply lists that accompany my projects are simply intended to provide a visual overview of what I've used in case you have the same items at home or would like to add them to your own shopping list. I link to several stores in the UK and US and as of July 1, 2017 I am an affiliate member of Scrapbook.com, Amazon UK, Ellen Hutson (store retiring), and (as of April 2022) The Greetery - this means that when you click on an affiliate link and go on to make a purchase I will receive a small percentage at no cost to you. Money raised through affiliate links will go straight towards my crafting fund. Finally, please note that any products marked "(r)" are retired and may no longer be available for sale online.

Going postal

Well it is Friday... almost the weekend! :D

Thanks to everyone who joined in with the hearts and doilies dare I set last week. This week on the DCM blog Rein has set us the challenge to create a card using postal inspiration.

My card as a bit of a nightmare to photograph but looks much nicer in real life where you can see all the Distress Stickles:

Actually it may look a bit better lying down:

Paper: Crate Paper
Stamps: 7Gypsies, Waltzing Mouse, PTI
Die: PTI
Twine: The Ribbon Reel
Chipboard elements: Crate Paper
Other: Distress Stickles, pattern wheel, distresser

I rather love that heart + heart chipboard. :)

Hope you have a creative weekend!

Thanks Ladies! I'm hoping to play with some new goodies tomorrow, so a break from the Crate Paperheart line - I've used it a lot recently. lol

Lynda to answer your question, they're by 7 Gypsies and just a heads up they don't take dye ink so well - those style of clear stamps that are a bit more jelly like and not rigid acrylic if you know what I mean, but these are they: http://shop.afth.co.uk/7gypsies---clear-stamp---ink-alphabet-4332-p.asp
