Bon Voyage!

Our nephew is off to Jamaica on a Gap Year adventure with Project Trust in August.  He had to fundraise a not insubstantial £5000 to be able to take part in this.  So, that achieved, he's off to a Jamaican orphanage where he'll be teaching the children sports.

Good luck, Mikey and send us a postcard!!

I've used Plane & Simple here with Newsprint DSP along with Basic Phrases for the sentiment.

French Foliage

I pinched this idea from Julie, the Crafty Bug.  Using a masking technique, I daubed the background with Peach Parfait and then stamped random images from the French Foliage Stamp Set using Pumpkin Pie, More Mustard and Cajun Craze.  The sentiment is from Plane & Simple.  Both sets are available in the 2011 Mini Catalogue.

Although difficult to see, I distressed the edges of the Naturals Ivory card stock before mounting onto More Mustard.
