Vintage Carriage

Inspiration

Hello and Happy Friday!!!!! I'm so glad to see this week end - big project at work with lots of hours all week! And, best of all, I'm headed to craft classes Saturday and Sunday taught by TIM HOLTZ IN PERSON!!! Yea!

This is my third Heartfelt Creations card this week - they keep getting simpler and simpler, don't they? This card probably has the shortest list of accessories I've ever published. The card is simply layers of paper, and a single silhouette image. When I found this patterned paper, I knew it was perfect for this carriage - and in this case, simple is good!
