Joan Ervin asked us to create a "ticket" for today's TLC card. Mine is a little over-sized, but I wanted it to contain the sentiment. I thought riding a train would require a ticket and went from there. This is a stamp set that I forget about, but it makes great masculine cards.

LOVE IT!!
I love the earth tones that you've chosen.
The image is perfect for a masculine card, the bg paper looks awesome and I really like the way the ticket/sentiment is placed. Beautiful brads too.

Sallie, this is just great!! I keep playing an old Al Stewart song in my head, some of the lyrics are: "buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight". Love the brads and the layered ticket!!

Sallie,
This is a wonderful card. I've always loved that image and the colors and embellishments you used to set it off are perfect. Your ticket is also pretty - such a lovely card!
