Ooh, collage - my favourite! This is too good to put on a card and should be framed or mounted on canvas (or you could send it to Patty).

I purposely did one that was probably more suitable for a male.
We all have problems doing something different for the menfolk
and I thought a sort of travel theme would be suitable for either.

I'm glad I live a long way away, in case you want to throw things at me - I am the lucky one who got Steph's card front! It's absolutely fabulous IRL and there is no, repeat no way it's going to become a card. It will go in my display box in the craft room.

I am really pleased you got it, knowing how you like recycling.
I'm even more pleased you are keeping it and not sending it on a card Very Happy

It's not just the recycling I love, Steph - it's the collage as well, probably my favourite technique (maybe because it was such a problem for me to actually do collage). And the colours are right, and there's lots of fibres, and things wherever you look - and the little Union Flag and India embellishment are rather apropos, as England are in India playing World Cup cricket at the moment!

Very interesting to look at and I also would certainly not use it for a card. I would keep it to use as a book front.
