This week was Canada . Our first truly BIG country. It was time to use the map poster I bought on a whim from urban outfitters.
Ok so it was too big for the card lets use it was the book page.
Next oooo red shiny paper lets cut out a maple leaf type shape. Ahhh tool big. Book page.
Ok let's google a moose. Let's copy moose on vellum. Love the moose. Let's stick in in the book.
Ok what next. Ah a cute little Canadian Mountie. Copy colour errrr stick in the book.
Errrrr isn't this a postcard challenge.
Ok let's stick ribbon to a post card to look like mountains. Fab idea. Shite in practice.
Today (Saturday ) we cleared out the pantry as it needs decorating. And kind a box of old photos.
I would never say I've been to Canada if people asked me but I have ok it was only to an airport for a couple of hours but I've been to the loo and had a drink in Gander and I have a phot to prove I was there. Well it was going I the bin pile as it was only of the airport but I decided to rescue it. Stick it to a post card and add a badly drawn on maple leaf. Et voila!
This was originally my blog for HSMS / HSMSMS/ HSMYHSFB blah blah blah now i am playing with postcards

09 Switzerland
I was excited by Switzerland
Wen I went on holiday the easy jet magazine was all things Swiss
There was an article about a wooden ski festival and about a train line
I knew I was going for the skis. But with no ink in the printer and I can't find the mag I acquired from the plane.
I've been on easy jet website and you can read the mag online ( you have to register and I did to steal some images)
I've also been embarrassing Switzerland by eating Lindt chocolate
My card is a section of an old fashioned looking map poster ( I used a random part of the pacific realising this was pretty far from Switzerland I hastily cut up some Xmas paper to look like a mountain. Please screw your eyes up and indulge me. The. I cut up some more brown Xmas paper to make skis again please indulge me they are skis
Stuck it all together with double sides tape and added some snowflake table scatters.
Background more Xmas paper. Do you think it's bad luck to use them in February?
