Thank God For Tesco !!!

Firstly i must say this was quite a hard challenge for me ,well with me being dyslexic i dont do letters in i can help it LOL,

so at nearly 10'oclock at night rummaging through draws looking for a envelope with a stamp on ,then going through the the kids toy box's as they sleep ,all i could find was a postman pat sticker stamp LOL,

so then i remembered the 24/7 tesco was open ,so sending hubby there looking for stamps all he managed to get was this (men hey),

so with it being a 1st class stamp i decided to do a well done card,used scraps of handmade papers a piece of gold mesh,brads and a swirl clip,i know it's a basic card but when you only got basic things LOL,xxxx
