Happy Friday! Angelica is here sharing a fun project with us today, but before we get to that, I just wanted to drop a note about next week…
We’re taking a bit of time to rest and rejuvenate before we head into our busiest season of the year! We’ll be operating with very limited staff next week, June 22-29. Orders will ship out, but not every day as is our usual shipping schedule. Please allow extra time for your order to be processed. Customer Service will be closed. We look forward to responding to any customer service inquiries when we return on July 1.
Now let’s hear about Angelica’s beautiful card…
I recently traveled with my family to Sweden. We stayed with our best friend from high school, and he took us all over the region, including Old Town, Stockholm. I couldn’t get over how beautiful the old buildings were, and the cobblestone roads and alleys were beyond charming. Two colors that kept popping up throughout Old Town were Sweden’s flag colors: yellow and blue. I used those colors as inspiration for today’s card.
I used the Vintage Type Stamp + Cut Combo to make the yellow typewriter. I die-cut light yellow and gold paper to add accents. Once I had the typewriter put together, I stamped a sentiment from Sign Off stamp set onto the typewriter “paper”. Before I attached the typewriter to a card base, I stamped the card base with Fresh Floral Background stamp. I attached the typewriter to the card base, and finished the card with blue and green Graceful Stems die.
I love how this card turned out, and I love where the inspiration came from. That’s that I have for today. Thanks for stopping by!

Pretty card, Angelica. I love your color choice. I would never have thought to make a yellow typewriter but it looks great with the blue. It’s always fun to hear where people get their inspiration. Glad you had a nice time in Sweden.
