It's a glorious day here with the sun shining and one crocus out. We've been out for a walk and now I'm multi-tasking - watching the Olympics, the Rugby and crafting too! Here's a quick card for the Less is More Challenge week 160 where the recipe is METAL. The link is to the challenge is here.
I've used a new stamp from Crafty Individuals CI-404 - I saw it and thought it'd come in useful as my DH is a Railway Engineer. The sentiment was a freebie stamp that came with it and the background is the Checkerplate from Kaisercraft stamped with Archival Manganese Blue. I've just added a little blue tint to the engine and a silver metal cog.
Hope you like and thanks for looking. I'm off to see what everyone else has created!!
It's amazing what wonderful things crafters come up with!
ReplyDeleteGreat card Elaine!

ReplyDeleteFabulous card Elaine ..... love the background stamp. xx
ReplyDeleteMy husband is a steam train enthusiast and would love this card. I like it too, the vintage looking train goes well with the more contemporary background, it really works well.
