New Addicted to CAS Challenge - Postage and a DT Call

 

There's a new challenge today on the Addicted to CAS Challenge Blog:

Our code word this time is 'postage'.  For more details and to see the cards from the rest of the team, head over to the challenge blog here.

And we're also having a DT call!  So if you love making CAS cards check out the details in the blog post I've linked to in the last paragraph.  

Here's another view of my card:

I have to admit that this challenge had me puzzled to start with!  After a bit of searching I came across the Tweethearts stamp set from My Favourite Things and spotted this sweet little bird holding an envelope!

I coloured the stamped image with Promarkers and die cut the panel using a die from Stampin' Up.

The stitched die I've used for the background is from Crafters Companion.

I would like to enter my card in the following challenges:

Kraftychicks Challenge - CAS

Simply Clean and Simple Challenge

As You Like It Challenge - favourite style (simple because sometimes it's good just to focus on one image and not detract from it with papers, embellishments etc)
