For a man who loves trains


I have 2 cards to make for an order, a 60th for her Mum and a 70th for her Dad. This is one of the first Little Claire stamps I ever bought many years ago and although it is no longer available as a clear stamp it is available as a digi. I stamped it with white ink onto kraft as I love this effect. The papers are LOTV Up, Up and Away, clouds are Memory Box dies and I added some brown twine.

It's no surprise that there are so many lovely cards on here for me to catch up with after my week away but I am especially loving the ones with the new LOTV art pads; you have showcased them so beautifully :-)

And 2 more fab scrapbook pages, you know I always love to see these!

Your train card today is brilliant; the white embossing on Kraft does look lovely and the papers are just perfect for this image.

Sadly I didn't get to LOTV shop in the end as we had to leave for home earlier than planned on Friday so the shop wouldn't have been open...another time maybe. I'll just have to put in an order online instead ;-)

Big hugs, Kat xx

This is a lovely card Marianne. I have a real soft spot for Kraft card and I love your idea of stamping in white. The Kraft card goes beautifully with those papers and I love the clouds and the twin...beautiful.
