I call this card You're Definitely My Type, because that was a surprise to me!
Sometimes, like you, I look at a stamp set and I don't see any potential. But then I start to work with it. This was one of those times, where I found a happy surprise. I really like this stamp set. I probably won't use it a lot. But I really like it!
Stamp sets are You're My Type (from the Occasions Mini) and Empire Alphabet Upper. (Did you notice that I spelled the word FRIEND on the background?) I have some of that 3/8" Ruffled Ribbon. And the regular staple fits the typewriter/office theme. Don't you agree?
Colors are Island Indigo, Pool Party – with some Basic Black and Whisper White. Easy on the eyes.
So, next time, don't be afraid to try something – a stamp set, a style, or a color – that you don't like at first. You may be pleasantly surprised!!
Until next time,
Sandi
I guess, just as our scrapbooks preserve memories from the past, so do our hand made cards!
This has actually been on my “probably” list since I saw it!! The only drawback is, any card featuring a manual typewriter could only be sent to someone of my own age!! I can just see sending it to one of my young nieces and having her say “Aunt Kathryn, what IS that thing????” Sigh.
