This was my swap card for Jami‘s New Stamp Set swap. I say “was” because the USPS managed to lose the box and my eleven cards, return postage and a gift for Jami are somewhere betweeen here and California. I felt badly enough that my time and supplies were wasted, but I feel even worse that others are now getting slighted because of the loss. Nothing to be done though, I suppose. I allowed plenty of time for the package to arrive.
I used Chocolate Chip for my base (no shock there, eh?), using the same color ink and Canvas for the background. The patterned paper is from SU’s new Outlaw dsp. All edges (except the horizontal strip) are sponged, and I added the three little knots of linen thread, using the mat pack to evenly space the stitches.
I keep hoping that sometime soon my box will appear and I’ll be able to get the cards to those in my swap group. But if not….I’m sorry! 🙁
