365 Cards Day 154 Planes, Trains and Automobiles


My cardmaking supplies in the transport department are sadly lacking it seems and I have had to resort to using this train border punch from Martha Stewart.
This is a simple birth congratulations card using a Forever Friends stamp and a Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder. The sentiment is from MSE.
I quite like simple cards!

    Oh Chrissie, this is wonderful! Didn't you just think outside the box on this one... for some reason, baby card didn't even cross my mind. I love it! Love the soft watercolours and monochromatic palette. Phenomenal.

    Chrissie, this card is fabulous and at first I thought maybe you were trying to pass off a baby card for something with wheels. Then I read your post and realized there was a train border at the bottom. This card totally qualifies.
