Enjoy The Journey ......

Here is my project for 'Guest Designer'
Thank you for inviting me this week to do a project for your blog x
The theme this week is Trains, Planes and Automobiles.
The background is Bistre's, stamping, stenciling, embossing, embossing paste and a white gel pen.
The sentiment has been stamped onto a separate Bistre's CS and cut out individually.
I have used copper EP around the edges of the brown card layer
and Mahogany EP around the corrugated card edges.
A family member is retiring shortly so I have made this with him in mind.
Crafty Hugs x
I am entering the following challenges.....
Mixed Media
The recipient will no doubt have hundreds of memories and favourites but I made the project with the memory of him flying and all the tales he told us and his love of travel....x
