I made this for todays Inspiration challenge #320.
When I saw the ice hockey machine, I knew that was what I needed to use as my inspiration. After all, I just got done cleaning my sons room and he had one sitting on the floor.
I grabbed a stack of stamps I seldom use. In them, I found the vintage labels. I saw the beautiful circular stamp and thought it would be perfect. I stamped 4 in pacific point.
Then I grabbed my punch and real red. There was already a large round scallopped punched circle and thought that would be perfect for the center circle.
I then saw my stamps from "of the earth" I saw the beautiful silhouette and thought that would fit perfectly in the middle.
I was going to mount everything on pacific point, when I was in that folder, I found two strips of previously embossed pp-cs, so I took them and thought they would make excellent stripes for the table.
After looking at the inspiration piece I noticed the table was brown or black, so I went to my early espresso folder and grabbed a piece of that for my base.
Then I put it all together, and voila'! A card is born!
thanks for the inspiration, and tfl!

Dara, what a delightful inspired creation! You have wonderful vision ... I totally see your inspiration piece, but would never have arrived at making a card as pretty as yours by looking at it. Way to go!
