FS274~Birthday on a Train

Photo Details

Poster: MelodyGal

What an amazing array of cards fill today's featured stamper's gallery. Heather T has quite a talent for creating gorgeous one-layer cards. And it just so happens that's what I needed today. I chose her Negative Train card. There were many I'd like to CASE, but this one was perfect for my needs. I changed the card base from white to gray, the sentiment to a birthday greeting, rounded the corners, and embossed the train in white instead of coloring it with markers.

TFL and have a great Sunday.

Super cool train and makes for a great masculine card. The embossing really brings out the train parts too, great card.
