Sabrina's Ways to Use it challenge, What's Your Type, celebrates the anniversary of William Austin Burt patenting America's first typographer (typewriter). What a great challenge for me to use neglected dies, brads, paper and stamps!
I started with an upright Z fold cardbase from my stash. Die cut the typewriter from black cs and a silver candy wrapper. Removed pieces from the black die cut to let the silver keys show through. Stamped the sentiment on text paper, trimmed to fit and tucked it in the typewriter. Layered DP on the panels and popped up the typewriter with three levels of dimensional tape. Adhered the brads to the front panel. Die cut 8 Happy Birthday sentiments, trimmed the bottom of four of the die cuts to create the ledge that allows the card to stand. Glued the layers and then adhered to the inside of the card. Stamped and fussy cut the mini memos and clip, adhered to inside of card to finish. TFL
Hope you'll play along!
