A Box of Goodies


Christmas is sadly behind us.  The New Year's begun.  And I have this lovely box of new goodies to try out.  What to do first.......
I needed a retirement card for a man who travels and shows antique cars.  Actually, I bought myself a little Christmas presents just for this card.  I picked out the Art Deco cartridge from Cricut.

I cut the car--my first real, intricate die-cutting, mind you!--from red, black, gray and tan cardstock.  For the base card, I used one of the maps from The Paper Studio's Uncharted stack.  I snipped a notch in a leftover piece of tan cardstock for the tag and sponged the edge with brown chalk ink.  (Yes, chalk ink seems to sponge more easily.)


Thanks for visiting!
Come back soon.!
