Love these muted colors of DOX inks for a vintage look. They were smooshed on the background and sponged and stenciled on the large postage stamp die cut and watercolored on the small images. The colors used were Wild Honey, Worn Lipstick, Weathered Wood, and Old Paper. Thanks so much for looking!

Gorgeous card, Cathy! Love the postage elements. The colors are lovely. The twine is a nice touch and a throw back to "brown paper packages tied up with string". Love it all!

Your stamps are so pretty and the smooshing and sponging are so smooth and add so much to this postage card, Cathy! I love the way you added the twine, like wrapping up the card-Brilliant~
