Happy Congratulations Coming Your Way!

All of my CLOclub members get a chance at being hostess and therefore harvesting all the Hostess benefits from the club order!  They sometimes also host a separate workshop in their home to add orders and thus more Hostess Dollars!  Susana did just that . . . and ended up with $65 Hostess Dollars to spend on anything and the chance to also purchase one item for 1/2 price!  She was thrilled.  Way to go, Susana!

This card was one we made at her workshop - another Clean-n-Clever card, enjoyed by all her guests.

The ribbon end is looped under and attached to itself with a couple Gluedots, the ends were banner cut, and the whole piece just fastened to the card with Snail adhesive!

I made a few extra for myself in an alternate color scheme . . .

All supplies are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted.

Missin' my favorite Typewriter stamp ...

I remember the 'old days' but probably not further back than electric typewriters!  I was too little to actually use the manual version - but even so, I still love the look ... and I miss this retro typewriter stamp a lot now that it is retired.  So in honor of the old days, I am sharing this card with you today!

 

That's real dictionary paper in the background - I keep a book around just for crafting!  I cut it to size, wadded it up into a ball (yes, I know ... it hurts, but it has to be done!), flattened it out, and inked the edges roughly with a sponge.  Be careful to get it fastened where you want it the first time - it dosn't like to be repositioned!

I changed up the Crumb Cake for So Saffron - I like this look, too!
