DEC17VSNL - My Challenge: Choose one of the Masterpiece Cards pictured below to inspire your card design. Please make sure to tell us in your card description which Masterpiece card you chose and why. I can't wait to see what you create and read what appealed to you from the Masterpiece card.
I chose the Arrival Of The Normandy Train Gare Saint Lazare by Claude Oscar Monet, 1877 for my inspiration.
Many might wonder why I chose that image and how it came about for this card. Well Purdue is an Ivy League College here in Indiana. They are known for engineering and have occasionally had trains come out as a mascot to the football field. I kept the colors in the Purdue colors which coincidentally match that image.
Stamped Pete, colored just his shirt, punched him out and another layer. Did some white dash lines on the strip and the banner and laid it all on some black and white striped paper.
I would love it if you would check out my Blog: Shoe Girls Cards.
Thank you for looking!

I recognized the Boilermaker right away! I have a niece at Purdue now. Plus my Lay Dominican group meets on the Purdue campus once a month. Maybe we can connect in real life!
Great card!
