I used the stamp set Vintage Technology for my project today!  You can find it in the Paper Wing Shop HERE.


I used paper from The Colorful Life 8x8 paper pad.  I originally stamped my images on white cardstock, but decided that maroon paper looked better.



I made a folder out of cardstock and adhered a pocket inside.


I made four 3x3 note cards using 3x6 kraft cardstock and scoring them in half.

I trimmed the patterned paper 2.75x2.75 inches and adhered to the front of the card.

I fussy cut the stamped images and added the sentiment.


I also stamped the typewriter on white cardstock and stamped DEAR on the letter.  I adhered the white paper on top of the typewriter.




I tucked the cards into the pocket.


I stamped an additional phone for the cover.  I can't wait to use these cards!!

Thanks for stopping by today - your next stop is the Talented DANA.

  15. Oh such a vision - love the retro telephone! I had one of those growing up - then we moved to the 'wall' phone with that 20 foot stretchy cord, lol! Beautiful colors and style - tfs!

    Oh, and I have a graduating Senior this year, too, and am scrambling to get her album done as well - looking forward to your inspiration!

    *Blessings!*
