Romancing the Train
Fashionable Stamping Challenge continues to be one of my favorite Challenge sites. The Design Team has inspired me to grow my card making skills and I love the variety of challenges. Speaking of which, it is time once again for a new challenge! This time, the challenge is to create a project using "Trains, Planes or Automobiles." Now while this tends to get me thinking of masculine type cards, I recalled this beautiful image by Crafty Individuals, and just could not resist incorporating it into my design. They say a picture tells a thousand words, and when I look at this image, I just start thinking of their story and the role the train in the background played in it. The stamped images are from various plates by Sam Poole. Love her images! A little hardware from Idea-ology, some black Liquid Pearls, and a touch of vintage black seam binding. You will be delighted with what my Design Team sisters have created to inspire you, and we sure hope you will submit a creation of your own. There's a prize for the top winner! Thanks as always for dropping by. Best wishes, Yvonne
