Travelin' Man.....

Hi there!  Whenever I see or hear the name of this set (Traveler) I just can't help but think of the song, Travelin' Man, by the Lynyrd Skynyrd band.  Now it will be in my head all day!  But you didn't come here to read about that.
The last couple of weeks I've been on a quest to clean out and integrate "stuff" from my old stamp room into the new one.  (A task that has been ignored long enough - like a year!)  Part of that process has entailed going through leftover class kits and years of bits and pieces that didn't get used on cards for whatever reason.  The above card was made from some of those bits and pieces.  In fact, I don't recall the name of the embossing folder used for the background panel.  That should give you an idea how old some of the stuff is!  If you're a stamper, you can probably relate.  The Deco Label Framelits and Soft Suede Taffeta Ribbon are also retired.  However, the Traveler stamp set is still current in the Stampin' Up! 2016-17 Annual Catalog. 

Must tend to my grandson.  Have a great day and thank you for peeking in today!

Traveler

Hi there!  Here it is another Friday.  Seems like we just did that!  How time flies when we're having fun.  Speaking of fun, today's card is another sample from our Card Buffet.  The Traveler set by Stampin' Up! was used for the train and valise images.  Love this set!  Four of the five In Color inks were used, giving the card more of a vintage look.  It's a little difficult to see the vertical strip under the postage stamps that was embossed with the Stylish Stripes embossing folder.  The train image was stamped, cut out with a Circle Framelit, and adhered to the World Map background.  Some of the ladies at our Buffet did a little moaning (all in fun, of course) because the valise required fussy cutting.

Must sign off now to finish getting ready for two days of fun with my stampin' peeps.  Have a great weekend and thank you so much for stopping by for a look today!

Maritime Traveler

Hi there!  Today's card is one of the make n takes from our New Catalog Open House that Mary Taylor and I hosted on May 31.  The ship image is from the Traveler set, which can be found in Stampin' Up!s new 2014-15 Annual Catalog.  (See below for other images that are in this set.)  The strip of Designer Series Paper is Maritime and the background panel was textured with the Argyle embossing folder.  My sample was totally CASE'd (Copy And Share Everything) from Sally Nusbaum's card.

Must run - our granddaughter spent the night.  Thank you for visiting today!
