Christmas Card Club Think Thin

No I'm not being cheeky and referring to the extra pounds we usually gain around Christmas I'm talking pound notes - as in saving them at the post office next Christmas when posting out the cards. It was Keryn's turn to pick the theme and she asked us to make something which would pass muster for standard postage.


Stamp is from Creative Expressions and has been inked up in two colours. Image is matted and layered onto green then brown card stock then attached to Kraft base with DST. Card is finished with two embossed lines.
If you'd like to join our little club get in touch with one of us (list in side bar).

Challenges entered:
Pixie's Crafty Snippets - all but the base card came out of my bit box

  23. Fab snippet make, Carol. The Kraft card makes a great foil for the stamped panel. And what a clever idea to think of making cards slim enough to fit through the seemingly shrinking PO slot. I'm still hurting from the cost of the Christmas card post last year! Elizabeth x
