Simple text can play a huge role in any handmade card, especially when you can frame it!

I created this  card using the Marquee Messages stamp set. The retro style images and fonts are so much fun and appropriate for anyone.  The set includes different greetings make this a versatile and fun set to use for just about any occasion.  

The arrow image is part of a larger image so I chose to stamp it on Basic Gray cardstock and cut them out. The fussy cutting is easy since the outline doesn't entail any curves.  I used the White Chalk Marker to fill the dotted edge to bring out the white cardstock layer.  

Flirty Flamingo cardstock makes up the base of this card.  I created a 1/8" layer of Basic Gray cardstock behind a layer of Peekaboo Peach cardstock.  

I used the Sparkle embossing folder on the Peekaboo Peach layer – perfect for that retro fell.  

Here are the supplies I used on today's card.
