Hello! TFL and hope you enjoy. Started this card wanting to join the Featured Stamper challenge. Loved aka: palparis' typewriter card! I kept the word bg, sentiment 'sending a smile' and typewriter stamp I have had for YEARS! never used, but not forgotten. : ) I changed the color, shape of die cut, & accent paper (to black rectangle)
I remembered the Typewriter challenge, WT802, that i thought of joining, but didn't take time to. FUN!
the recipient is an artist, always trying to find something interesting to add, and then saw the Japanese Stab binding technique on MIX383 feeling stabby? challenge. She will just love this detail and I had fun doing it and look forward to making a journal this way. THANKS for enlightening me on this technique, i will definitely continue using it. : )
Lastly, i am trying very hard this summer to USE IT! so USEIT2020 was obvious add for me, had to wipe off the white film from the Typewrite stamp, as it was brand new, Michael's cheap stamp. haha Of course, the S U Typeset paper is many yrs old, still have half of it left. and Sahara Sand is my least used inkpad in the spinner.
Inside i stamped more of the flowers (with Poppy Parade) that you see a tiny bit on the front, from the S U Watercolor Words set and the words Hope and Love. right now we need all that encouragement. BIG HUGS to you all and stay well and reach out to keep in touch - i have been making cookies to drop at doorsteps this summer. finally going thru all the sugar /flour i bought at the holidays and didn't use. lol
TFL, Teresa

Awesome card, Teresa. I loved that same card you did! Your typewriter is so fun (I have one similar at home - lol). Love the papers and thread too. This case came out wonderfully! Hugz
