Card Clubhouse IG Hop - Week 15

Hello lovely friends; I'm back to share my card for the Card Clubhouse IG hop organised by my sweet friend Kelly. We are on Week 15 and our theme is 'letters home & anything postage' and we know how popular the postage trend is in crafting right now and there are so many stamps, dies and stencils available that this is bound to be a fun hop.  There are going to be so many awesome creations along the hop this week and I can't wait to see what sparks your imagination.

I knew what I was going to use as soon as I saw this week's theme. I've had this stamp, die and stencil from Spellbinders since April 25 and it's never been used so this was the perfect time to dust it off.  I think it turned out great and I hope you like it too. 

Here is my card:

A closer look at the details:

Plus I decorated the inside:

I began by cutting a white panel 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" and used the air mail stencil to create the fun red, white and blue border; I love this look so much and this could be used for lots of different occasions by changing up the colours.  I took the letters and envelope stamp and stamped it once onto white card using memento black ink and once on blue card using versafine clair black ink.  I coloured some of the white images very lightly using my Promarkers and used the coordinating dies to cut them out.  I added foam squares behind them and added them onto the blue background.  I stamped the sentiment in black ink onto white card and again used the die to cut it out; this was also added to the background with foam squares.  The blue background was added to the air mail panel with double sided tape and I finished off with some clear sequins.  The panel was adhered to the card base using double sided tape.  For the inside I cut a white panel 4" x 5 1/4" and stamped a sentiment in the upper centre using black ink.  I stamped a small part of the letters and envelopes background and again cut some extras from white card, which were lightly coloured with Promarkers.  I added these with liquid glue and also added a thin strip of red card behind the blue panel before adhering it to the bottom of the white panel with double sided tape.  I had one envelope left over so added that next to the sentiment with liquid glue.  The panel was added to my card base with double sided tape.
