Passport To Adventure

Passports are always a requirement if you want to adventure beyond our country borders and Mary Wallace has given us our very own passport to adventure anywhere we’d like to go (in our imaginations at least!)

Completely embossed on the outside, Mary’s passports feel like the real thing!  Inside of the passport Mary has actually added fun travel stamps as well as some of the official passport stamps from Friends and Company’s passport club!

Wild Joys

Welcome to the jungle of Michelle McCarthy’s 2nd set of travel tags!  Michelle confessed that she used items from her children’s toy box for this design:

So creative!  And one of my favorite stamps is on the back:

Seattle Skyline

Julie Imsland’s inspiration came from this great photo taken by her husband Mark.  With some tricky measuring Julie was able to get Mount Rainier to line up perfectly in the window of this shaker card!  The bead mix was odd to see apart from the card, but it worked splendidly with the colors in the photograph!

Two darling shrink plastic charms hang from the edge.  The Mount Rainer one is shown clearly, the Washington one is black and blends into the background of the photo. julieback And when I saw what Julie was up to I knew I had the perfect stamp for her to use on the backs of her tags!  It’s an old unmounted stamp, so I am not able to give it credit.

C’est La Vie

There is so much interest and texture in Kathi Hall’s tag design it takes awhile to let it all soak in!

Ultra thick embossing, stamped swirls, brads, hemp, collage images and colorful shrink plastic charms all add to the “charm” of Kathi’s playful design. kathiback
