Have you ever seen a cuter typewriter? I have an old typewriter of about the same vintage, but it is sadly lacking in the cuteness! Those colorful, adorable keys against the black body of the typewrite inspired me to reach for my ZING embossing powders. (Love these-don't use them enough). My second inspiration came from Helen, this week's Moxie Fabber. I am just getting to know this sweet and talented lady, who mentioned that HER friend Karin, has made an entire page of little pages that just fit the typewriter in the stamp set I chose to use for this project. You can download them for free, just like I did! Thanks so much Karin, for making my project come together so easily.
See what I mean? Life really is better with friends! I hope you will check out the Tuesday Trigger challenge for yourself and join the fun.

ReplyDeleteCute, cute card, Suzanne. ;-) I love the different colors of typewriters with their little papers on top - so fun! I remember learning to type on an actual typewriter, not with these fancy computer typing programs that my kids are. I remember using carbon copy paper and correction ribbon, etc. for a few years before they disappeared. You totally did this Moxie challenge justice. ;-)
ReplyDeleteHey Suzanne! Thanks for linking this up to this week's Tuesday Trigger in the Moxie Fab World! I'm so glad you joined in on all the fun! :)
