I hope everyone is happy and creating a lot of wonderful cards. For me, well, I have been very busy making cards too, just not showing them off, until now. This card was inspired by Inkspirational. Here is my card for today, enjoy!
 |
| As you can probably see this resembles a very well-traveled suitcase. I used a scrap piece of PP and further distressed by stamping the 'cracks' and darkening the edges of the card. The travel badges are from another stamp. I used the ones I wanted from the stamp and scrapped the rest. But I have to say my favorite badge is the 'handle with care'. Notice it ripped and tattered. Anyone who has traveled knows the joke very well. |
 |
| I used an old PP set for the buckles. I cut them buckles out colored the 'metal' with a VersaMark pen and embossed it chunky gold. I also distressed the 'leather' by shading and highlighting. |
 |
| The sentiment was put together using different materials. 'Destination' was die-cut once using dark brown and two layers of white underneath. I felt if the white wasn't there it wouldn't pop or go along with the stamped sentiment that was white embossed on the same dark brown paper as the die-cut. |

Such a fun interpretation of Travel! It IS what we come home with...battered suitcases and hopefully wonderful memories! Thank you for sharing your work with us at INkspirational~
