Riding the Rails

Hello Friends

Don't you just *love* the new catalogue?  

I have been drooling about it from the first moment I saw it and I cannot wait for my big order of new goodies to arrive this weekend.  Until then, I have a few new sets I can use and among them is this gorgeous one.  

Traveler has 6 beautiful images that have a romantic, vintage feel and despite the fine lines and detail, they stamp beautifully.  A testament to the quality of the deeply etched red rubber of Stampin' Up! stamps if I do say so myself.

This is quite a simple card to make, but there is a grace and elegance to that simplicity.  An embossed background and a sponged edge and voila, that pretty much takes care of the detailed explanation.  But a lot of words is rather unnecessary.  The card speaks for itself, don't you think?

I especially love this train because my grandfather was an engineer and the rails run in my blood, so to speak.  And this particular image just seems to speak to my heritage.  I can see me getting a lot of use out of all of the stamps in the Traveler set.  But then again, I will be getting a lot of use out of all of the wonderful goodies in the new catalogue!

Have you seen the new catalogue yet?  If you haven't, and you'd like a copy, contact me and we'll make arrangements to get one into your hands.  Trust me - you will love what you see within its pages.

Until then, hope everyone enjoys their day.  I'll be back tomorrow with a Thankful Thursday post.  God Bless you all,     ~Cynthia    <><
