Hello

Have you ever been in a situation that you lost contact with someone you have known quite well for ages and you are not quite sure how to approach this person again? Well, if you have the address, you could send a little card ... (lol)
The card is based on Lucy's second sketch
The colours of the card is one of my favourite colour combination. The patterned paper is from Jenni Bowlin, stamps (telephone and sentiment) from Hero Arts. After having sewn around the edges of the card and the tag, I didn't like it at all. Maybe it was not close enough to the edge ot the stitches were too big. In the end I removed the stitching; now the stitch holes show but I like it much better.
I stamped the telephone, cut it out and covered it heavily in Glossy Accents ... it is a one of these lovely old bakelite telephones and have to have this lovely black shine (lol)
Wishing you a brilliantly crafty weekend, Petra.
