Faux Postage Stamps

Good morning everyone,

I found a quick and easy tute on faux postage stamps at the CDAC (Crafter's Digital Art Center), a place for digi's that was started by the fabulous Priscilla Styles. There is a wealth of information about digi's on this network and if you're interested, you'll find it a nice place to be. Pat is the author of this wonderful tute and supplies the faux postage stamps as well!


I used these vintage photos I found from a link on Free Digital Stamps. These photos worked perfectly for the faux digital stamps (which I've cut into fours though it does omit dots on one side of two of the stamps). The images are already colored and the paper from K&Company just fit perfectly with it. This was quick and fun.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hi Terry, it feels like we've not had a good chat for ages! Love the new look blog and also love the card. Those vintage stamps are just cute, and who says blue and green shouldn't be seen?! The dinky little pearls are a lovely little finishing touch. Hugs. xxx
