I made this card for one my husband's co-workers (a mailman) who's retiring tomorrow after 20+ years of service. I thought this old sketch challenge Forums at Splitcoaststampers with its unique fold and opening resembled a mailbox, so I thought it was perfect with this image of mailboxes. (Thanks, Diane {djuseless}, for sending me these great images!)
I started with a 5 7/8" square piece of Basic Grey cs and added the Textured Baja Breeze card. The image is stamped on GP110 cs with black ink. I added the grass stamp and then colored the image with various SU inks and a Blender Pen. I used my Stamp-A-Ma-Jig to stamp the sentiment, layered it on Ruby Red and Basic Grey cs, added the Hodgepodge piece and then glued it to the card.
It's a large card and has plenty of room inside for everyone to sign it. TFL - Regina

Very cute! Interestingly enough, I had just printed the SC main lists and was about to start with this particular sketch as my first one done when I stumbled upon your take on it!
