Type Cast


The World of Work continues this month at Gingersnap Creations with this week's Random Redhead challenge: GC95 Typewriters.  Please visit the Gingers and Guests to see what they've created around this theme: GC95

I immediately reached for my Graphic45 papers, thinking I'd be using the Communique typewriter. But instead I used the alphas that look like typewriter keys (with pop dots behind them) and the text type along with their On the Boardwalk paper and image. I completed the tag with some fiber netting and a few of my Florida seashells.  A little distress ink and some Maya Road ribbon and wa la !!!

What type of typewriter project do you have in mind?  You have until April 17 to link your creation to GC95.  You may be the next GC homepage artist or one of the Ginger Gems!
