Administrative Day!






This card was created for the Administrative Assistant in our office.  She does a lot of work to keep the office moving smoothly.  I love the Retro feel to this card!  It takes me back to typing class.  One thing which I do not miss is having to type perfectly with those carbon papers.  It is great to have computers now!  However, I still love the look of a typewriter.  The sketch is from Freshly Made Sketches!  It was the perfect sketch to showcase this theme! The designer paper is from Echo Park For the Record!

Very cute card! The background paper is perfect for the typing theme. And I also remember the "joy" of carbon paper in typing class, LOL.

Love this card, Ginger! Fabulous idea and very apt for the recipient. I remember only too well that awful carbon paper .... plus needing muscles in our fingers to type LOL.
Thank you for joining us at Scribble & Scrap and good luck!
