I entered this card into the August challenge over on the
EverythingWendyVecchi Yahoo group...you need to use at least one Studio 490 stamp and a die cut.
The card is an A2 size - easiest for me...no special envelopes to make or track down. Some of the ingredients include Roll-A-Bind disk, Sizzix/TH mini typewriter die, distress ink, archival ink, Adirondack embossing powder, Studio 490 stamp sets (Art-Fully Said, Well Worn Art, and Manly Art), silver and gold pens.
Remember those old manual typewriters? Typing 1 used those until you proved proficiency. It took me a while to advance to the Selectric. And now I have an old portable that I use periodically...but just for crafting! Can you even find typewriter ribbons these days? Guess I dated myself, huh? lol
This is a perfect card for a man. Love it. It's funny that you mentioned the old typewriters. I spent time yesterday on ebay and other sites trying to find an old typewriter that works. I used our old one that was in the rafters for a washi tape test. It doesn't work and the repair man said the bad part is one we will probably never find. I want to type on journal cards for scrapbooking. I think I will have to buy a new electric one. I didn't even know they still made them.
