Hello Friend!--FM165

June 24, 2014

 I started my day with a few hours of tennis.  I did not play for 3 weeks, so it was fun to get back on the court and see some dear friends!

 My card today is for the Friday Mashup Challenge.  The challenge was to make a black/white or ivory card with one other colors and mash it up with a word bubble.  I love black and white cards with a splash of color so, I had fun making my card.  I used a Tim Holtz stamp today.  I LOVE old typewriters and have been searching for one to buy for quite a while.  I want one that still types and is in good shape.  They are hard to come by.  If you see one , let me know!  I hope you enjoy my card!

    LOVE the smudgy sponging, Claire- so reminiscent of old typewriters- great detail! I just got Tap, Tap, Tap and can't wait to ink it up:) Thanks for playing with the Friday Mashup this week.

      Thank you, Cindy! Yes, remember how messy old typewriter ribbons were! You get it! I want Tap, Tap, Tap, but already own this typewriter. We will see----XX

    This is a lovely card, Claire. I like the antique look of it with the pop of bright blue. The diagonal stripes really make it stand out too. Thanks for playing with us at The Friday Mashup.
