Vintage rose postcard

This is a CAS card using one of my favourite stamps: rose postcard by Stamps Happen.

It was simply stamped on to a kraft card blank using vintage photo DI and the edges distressed with the same ink. I've usually coloured this image when I've stamped it, but decided with this to leave it simple and monochromatic.

I think I might make more of these to put into sets as notecards.

This is for:

Kort o mania 41: monochromatic
Guylou's inimitability: monochromatic
Less is more 18: colour monochrome
