Frilly and Funky

The challenge at Frilly and Funky is air mail.
When sorting through I found a set of Air mail envelopes so decided to use one on this card.
It became the second layer of 5 and provided contrast for the neutrals that followed.
I added cream lace along the edge of the patterned paper then added my sentiment and finally a cloth "stamp" featuring a biplane.
I'm imagining someone overseas in the 1920s sending this back to their sweetheart.


Perhaps it was Phryne Fisher and Inspector Jack Robinson.

Fabulous card! Love how you used the classic air mail envelope as part of the card! Thanks for playing with the House That Stamps Built.
