A card at Last !

I finally got around to making a card yesterday, I have been a little side tracked by the atc making which I love at the moment more that making cards lol. Any how I needed to make a start on the thank you cards for the teachers at my children's schools, this is going to be a long task as there are so many and my youngest is leaving his nursery to start big school, so there are lots of thank you's that need to me made!

I also made 2 atc's yesterday using some lovely images again combined with stuff from my stash. I am now on the hunt for back gounds and other things to add to vintage images. I remembered my parents have some really old postcards in their cuboard from all over the world, they were given them by a friend whose mum passed away, this was when I was a child so some 2o years ago so they may well come in handy. I remember they were beautiful colours and spent time looking throught them so I am excited to see what may be in that box! There were some unusual stamps too. Will post later what I find!

Have a lovely Thursday all!

Oopps Whilst I am here I must remember to tell you about a lovely Blog Candy over at JulietkBears juliet is giving us the chance to win one of her Ickle dolls (see side bar pic) Pop over and meet Russell and see her lovely work!

Bye

    I collect old postcards and only have a few but i like to scan them and then play with them on my computer and make my digital graphics with them. You are so lucky to be able to get hold of some long lost ones as they will be like little treasures ... i know you are gonna have so much fun my friend
