Vintage Type

This typewriter image (from You're My Type in the Occasions Mini) looks fantastic when embossed! The picture really doesn't do it justice. :)

I stamped the image with my Basic Black craft ink pad and used my clear embossing powder. Wowza! This really makes the typewriter pop. I love the over-all vintage feel to this card - makes it great for a guy or a gal. Have a great day!

Beautiful card, love how you embossed the typewriter (it looks as shiny as they used to be)! The colors you chose are very nice and I love the addition of the text paper, just perfect!
