Long time no see everyone! It's been a couple months since my last post, which seems to be the norm. Can't seem to find the gumption to do a whole lot these days. First Father's Day without my husband. I think there will be alot of those "firsts" this year. His birthday was the Sunday before so it's been a rough couple weeks.
I know it's a couple days past Father's Day, but I made this card about 4 wks ago and I wanted to post it ever since, but then I got sick with Covid - again! When it rains, it pours!
This is made with Anna Griffin's Antique Train Slimline Easel Die set, so dang cute, I just love it!! Pretty much every thing on here is AG. The base and the background dies I cut with a dark grey matte metallic paper. I cut the train with 3 different color matte metallic papers, then paper pieced the blue and copper into the brown. I cut some of the blue paper to look like curtains and put them behind the windows. The smoke, stars and sentiment embellishments I pulled from another AG set, I think the Gentlemen's Study Craft Box. You could add alot more embellishments, which I've seen on other makes, but I wanted to feature the train in all it's glory. Maybe next time.
Thanks to all the challengers above for lettin' me play along.
Blessings!
