My dp is from River City Rubberworks and is a copy of some real old postcards. Base card is Kraft layered with Not Quite Navy and then the dp. The note tag is stamped on Kraft with Not Quite Navy ink and is layered on the Not Quite Navy cardstock. Punched a hole in the end and tied on some ivory twine then attached it with a dimensional. Did some distressing on the Not Quite Navy panels.

Love this! What perfect paper to have on hand for today's challenge!
Here in Orange Park there used to be a restaurant called The Sisters'. Unfortunately the building was sold so a doctors' office could be built there instead, but the sisters' moved about 5 miles south and opened another restaurant. The women's bathroom there is papered with *real* old cards that were sent to/from their family...it is so cool to see all those pretty images, and hand-written greetings. The restaurant decor is other old memorabilia like baby's baptismal clothing and Sunday School promotion certificates. The whole place has a bit of quaint old charm. That was the first thing that came to mind when I saw your card!

That paper is great, and the tag you made fits right in with the collage look! Love it!
