The Three Muses Challenge - Mail Art

ENLARGE FOR MORE DETAIL.

The image for my decorated envelope is a freebie from the lovely Terri Kahrs at Pringle Hill Studio.  Thanks, Terri!  All other bits and pieces from a collaboration collection by Catherine Designs and Creativewing Design at After Five.  I used a 7 x 5 inch template size.

  17. Marie, I love every tiny thing about this, from the vintage feel, to the wonderful colour palette, the way you have repeated the face on the postage stamp and even down to the detail of adapting an honest to goodness postage mark from mail you have actually received. A masterpiece and a wonderful product of your extensive creative talent. Kudos of the first order.
