This is a true one layer card; I needed a postcard to send and couldn't find any in the drawer that I liked. So I cut some cardstock and brushed Distress Inks over it, then stamped a very old Clarity Stamp and an Elusive Images sentiment onto it. I brushed a bit more blue ink onto the balloons and used it to edge that postcard. That's it, finished!
I'm entering my (post)card for the following challenges:
Charisma Cardz - something that flies
Shopping our Stash - oldies but goodies, oldest stamp or digi. I don't think I even have my oldest stamp but this is certainly one of the very very earliest I bought...
Digi Design House - One layer wonder
Crafty Cardmakers Spotlight - try something new - I've nver made a postcard before but now I plan to make lots!
this card is gorgeous...love the colours and the hot air balloons are wonderful...
