Postcards


I have acquired this really lovely glossy card which is just about postcard size give or take a couple of mm's and I can't stop playing with it, hence all the postcards.  I used the paler shades of the alcohol inks for these ones.


Kath if you didn't think the previous one was a 'Sam' one then you won't think this is either!!!  I didn't buy the stamp, I was kindly given it, so thought I ought to use it.


The background image is clear heat embossed over black soot distressed ink.  The words have been shadowed with lake mist.

Love the images on all of them, but really like the flourishes on the top one, the lovely edging effect on the second and the stamp on the left on the third, by you have been busy

York, mmmmmmmmm, hot sticky driving, and York Races so traffic queues, other than that lovely sun tan walking in some amazing historical areas, whilst working :) off to dive in an ice bucket and then sleep

perks of the job??

Hugs Kate xx

Love all the images and the colours, Sam - they're great - even the one that isn't very 'Sam'. Wish I'd been to York - I love it there and my brother lives there, too.

Well, actually, they all DO look like SAM creations and I love them, esp the words on the friend one and the images on the top and bottom one are perfick with their words too.
