Sweet Postage

I wanted to use my new Postage Stamp Punch and the coordinating stamp set Pretty Postage and came up with this card.  One punch led to another as I layered the postage image.  I think the Petal Card Double Punch made a nice layer, too.  When deciding what to use on the background of the Naturals White card I thought of one of my favorites, the grass image from Inspired by Nature.  I also used my bone folder to distress the strip of Crumb Cake cardstock and the Lucky Limeade petal punch piece.

Cardstock:  Naturals White, Lucky Limeade, Concord Crush, Crumb Cake
Accessories:  Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch, Scallop Square Punch, Postage Stamp Punch, Petal Card Double Punch, Bone Folder, Stampin' Dimensionals, Watercolor Pencils

That grass stamp is the perfect touch, and anything with Naturals White and Crumb Cake is automatically going to catch my eye :)

Love the colors you chose. I never would have thought of using them together! The grass in the background is a great touch, too.

I like how you combine sets as you need to to make the cards coordinate so well. Great colors and great card!
