The Craft's Meow Sneak Peak Telegram

Hi there!  Welcome to day three of The Craft's Meow August stamp set sneak peak!  Today, I am sharing a project using a fantastic 6x8 set designed by Nina Bracket called Telegram.  This set is packed with fabulous sentiments and a giant telegram image.  Please be sure to leave a comment on the TCM blog, you never know if your name will be drawn to win this set!


To start, I adhered a distressed piece of patterned paper from My Mind's Eye Gertie paper pad to a Kraft card base.


I stamped the telegram image and sentiment onto a piece of Vintage Cream card stock and distressed it well with Walnut stain ink, distress tool and mists of water.  I then adhered it down to my card.


Lastly, I die cut a flower from tissue paper, added glimmer glaze to it along with an aqua brad and adhered it, along with some twine, to my card.


I hope you enjoyed today's project!  Be sure to check out the other ladies lovely creations using this set!

Lindsay

    Hi neighbor! (Hilliard Ohio) Love how you made the image tattered and worn looking, like it popped out of a mail bag on the pony express. Fantastic!
