I can't believe it has taken me almost an entire month to share the card I made for this month's prompt, as seen here.
The prompt inspired a retro theme, so of course out came my beloved typewriter set from SugarPea Designs.
Paper: Simple Stories - Dream Big (r)
Stamps: Mama Elephant - Birthday Messages, SugarPea Designs - You're My Type
Dies: SugarPea Designs - You're My Type, The Greetery - Sentiment Suite Basics, Mama Elephant - Framed Tags - Madison Avenue
I am making a concerted effort to use up my stash of pre-scored card blanks, as these days I tend to make my bases from Neenah 8.5 x 11 cardstock so I can use US A2 dies on my cards.
And well, you can't go wrong with kraft, so that was the "neutral + bold tone" part of the challenge sorted!
It goes so well with these bright, rainbow patterns and designs in the Dream Big collection by Simple Stories.
I wanted to keep things simple, so just showcased the orange typewriter with a fun frame and added a couple of sentiments.
And hey presto, card made!
