November is a busy card making month for me, it seems that over half my friends have Birthdays this month (as do I tomorrow so perhaps there's some weird Scorpio synchronicity going on!) so I have a lot of cards to make. I made a start with this weeks mojo Monday sketch as my inspiration for a friend who loves to travel. http://mojomonday.blogspot.co.uk/2012/11/mojo-monday-266-contest.html
I used this just wonderful and oh so appropriate image from Stamping Bella's Uptown Girls range which if you come here often you'll know I just adore. I tried to keep the colours of the cases very vintage to look like they'd had a lot of use and then paired them with some postcard and map papers with some vintage brown paper for the ribbon and a die cut craft shape. I added a couple of Hero Arts sentiments to the postcard and the green banner and finished with a couple of die cut flowers with gem centres.
I just got two lovely packages of new stash delivered today so I may be back later with something else if I get time to play......
What a really fab card! I love that image, no wonder you like it so much.
