Thank you Birdie

Welcome

Still waiting to hear that last month's swap card has arrived.... the national post office is trying to take itself out of business with high prices and appalling service...   Enough



I attended a family function recently, and the serviettes used were the same as some I had on hand, so I sent a Thank You card made with one from my stash - I didn't have to snaffle this one :)


I mounted the serviette/napkin onto white card, wrapped the red ribbon around it and added it to the red layer to frame it.  The sentiment stamp was a magazine freebie and stamped beautifully, and was die cut and layered over red before being added to the card, with a wee tad of ribbon at the bottom of the words.


This was all mounted onto a white base.
I added the red ribbon to the inside panel, but unfortunately the photo was blurry. 
The envelope was decorated with two layers of washi tape.

I am linking this to:

Thank you for visiting

This is so sweet, Maxine. I would have never guessed that this was a napkin! I need to give this technique a try.

The post is just the same here Maxine and sending overseas now takes courage! A pretty card for the recipient.

Same situation with the greek post office, my friend.
Hope that you will receive my package during this year (ha ha)!
Hugs, my friend.
