So now on to my card:
First let me tell you that the backdrop for the card is a placemat/poster we received at SAF also - I used mine to stamp on so the pretty green tablecloth didn't get all dirty - some people collected autographs on it to take home as a souvenir. We also had passports that we collected stickers and autographs in - very fun idea!
So my card was created using the new Iconic Images stamp set. I stamped the bird and sentiment in Memento brown ink onto Vanilla Cream cs and punched the bottom edge.After wrapping some twine around this piece, I added it to a mat of patterned paper (sorry, don't remember the source). A strip of Auqa Mist cs was stamped with Woodgrain and added to the card front behind the focal piece. The polka dot paper is from Library Ledger paper pack (PTI).
Now on to some Stamp-A-Faire photos - if you want to see more, send me a request to join Facebook (you can find a Facebook link to me over in the left sidebar) and I will add you as a friend. The album of all the photos can be found there.
