I received my sixth and final postcard I from Maya near the end of February - a beautiful skyline view of New York. Thanks Maya!!
So, I had six postcards from the exchange, which would all fit nicely in a 12x12 divided page protector. However, I also wanted to include the postcard that I received from Rinda and used as INSPIRATION for creating my own postcard to send as part of the swap. I decided to include a copy of my postcard as well as the logo from Sian's blog, too.
I chose an 8x8 divided page protector from my stash and stitched it to the 12x12 page using my sewing machine. Here's a look at the two pages together.
Having the two page protectors stitched together makes it easy to see that all these cards and my journaling go together, and the 8x8 page flips open easily.
I also really like being able to read the lovely handwritten notes on the back of each postcard.
Did you participate in the postcard exchange? How would you include the postcards in a scrapbook?
What a great way to remember this fun exchange!
ReplyDeleteYou've been very creative in putting these together, and it's going to be lovely to remember in years to come :).
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful way to showcase all the cards and be able to write the notes. All the cards are so unique and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteMelissa, this is just wonderful! I love how you have collected the cards together (and included the logo) so they can be read. When I was talking to Debbie Hodge the other day she asked me what everyone was doing with their cards: she'd love this too
ReplyDeleteMelissa, what a fabulous idea!! I love how you were able to use the postcards in a way to see the writing on the back.
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love post from across the pond!
ReplyDeleteAwesome idea for the postcards!
