I have two cards to share with you today. This first card uses the featured set for today All Postal with a couple of other MFP sets.  I have used the tiny flower from Ivy & Blossoms set in my "stamp" and the palm tree from Flamingos on Vacation.  It is a very simple card.


 
My second card has as much inside as on the front.  I used an embossing folder to create the "words" and used one of the Hummingbirds from Hum Along inside my stamp - I masked off the Happy Birthday from that image before inking so I just had the bird.  Inside the card I have used the lighthouse image and sentiment from Island Life and the cracked earth from Cracked Hello.  I used Memento to stamp the images, distress inks on the backgrounds and Copics for colouring in.



 The special stamp set we have for you this month is:
"Love Script"

 
The mini stamp set we have for you this month is

"Big Cupcake"

  10. Janine,
    I am loving your postcard with the palm tree - it is so perfect - and gives a feel of some grand exotic destination! Your other card is lovely and the embossing is the perfect detail.
