Project: Stamp Scavenger Hunt ~Nature~

It is so much fun using my collection to fit in with the themes but its getting harder and harder to fit things in as I want to but unfortunately there are no stamps created by me and I doubt Royal Mail will ask for my opinion on this one as they'll be insanely shaped instead of stuck to the usual stamp shame.

Day 8: Nature

The only downside to taking part in challenges like this is that it really makes you aware of how quickly the days are flying by... or even the year as we are already half way through the.

 

Anyway I chose this one for the tree, hillside and the river, I could spend hours just sat in a place like this walking or sitting/meditating in the sunshine (if there is any that is!). One nice things about photographing my stamps with this range (as I did it before even this challenge begun), if I've never heard of a place before I can click on the labels and it shows you all photos others have posted but also I find out exactly where it is.

Day 4: Nature

I absolutely love nature but I find I don't explore and appreciate it enough during all the seasons but hopefully one day I'll pay better attention to it like I did as a child. Speaking of being a child, I always felt so over excited finding a bird feather, I'd carry it all over, appreciate the softness and the colour of it... now you are encouraged to leave them where they are due to illnesses attached to them. How times have changed. One way I do appreciate nature though is through my crafts, I usually work with leaves, flowers and seaside themes so today I decided to go for a bird feather.

Lovely Place...

Between the Pages of a Book is a Lovely Place to be!

 

I asked a friend for a list of loves which she sent me. I decided to choose the theme of 'Books'. I used a dictionary page, Paddington Bear rubber stamp and a book quote to go with the theme. I liked how the postcard turned out but the only thing I would loved to have done is to sew around the edges but I ran out of time as I hope to send this friend a card a month only February was days away so I wanted to get it out in time. I sent it in January but she got it today so I need to be better prepared next time!

 

I hope that you are doing well with your projects!
