"mountain getaway" card

Love the mountains!  --My favorite vacation destination.

Supplies:
One of my favorite backgrounds is kraft paper.  This kind from JoAnn's has neat flecks and irregularities to it.  I created the scene inside the Polaroid frame with stamps and ink pads (the clouds were done with my cloud template from Crafter's Workshop again).  I masked the edge of the frame with Post-It notes (easy, easy trick!)  I also distressed/antiqued the map in the corner by dabbing parchment-colored cardstock with light brown ink.  Coloring was done with Crayola colored pencils, a Sakura white gel pen, and various colors of ink pads.  A little cutting, a little layering -- and it was done!

Stamps:
Mountains, birds, sun, large sentiments -- Paper Smooches/
Polaroid frame -- Lawn Fawn/
map -- Bo Bunny/
small sentiment (from a "date" stamp) -- Leisure Arts/

Thanks for taking a look! ~ Amanda B., the manderbean :)
