Postcard from Paradise! | Easy Postage Stamp Shaped Card | Mintay Papers Week 20

Happy Saturday!

I hope you have a fabulous day!

Welcome back to another project for the Mintay Papers Challenge!

Today I'm sharing my project for Week 20 – Postcard from... and this one is a super quick 5-minute cardmaking tutorial! 📮🌊

For this challenge, I decided to create a card in the shape of a postage stamp using an SVG file from Creative Fabrica.

The card is a top-folding design and fits perfectly into a 5x7 inch envelope, making it practical as well as fun to create.

For the decoration, I used the beautiful 'Riviera Moments' collection from Mintay Papers, including a coloured chipboard piece with a sentiment from the collection.

But I couldn't resist adding one more little detail! 😊

I created another stamp-shaped element featuring a boat from the 'Riviera Moments' collection and placed it in the top-right corner of the card so it looks just like a real postage stamp. 🚢

I love how these little details help turn an ordinary card into a fun postcard-inspired handmade card.

And because this tutorial is only around 5 minutes long, it's a quick and easy project that you can recreate and adapt to your own favourite paper collection.

I hope this project inspires you to look at postage stamps, postcards and everyday objects in a completely different way when creating your handmade cards!

Where would your handmade postcard be from? 🌊✈️

Happy crafting!
