The Mapquest Challenge at CAS-ual Fridays was the perfect opportunity to break out my Old Globe die cut from Die-Versions.
I started with a page from one of the many vintage atlases in my book collection and this week's Sweet Sunday Sketch.
I started with a dark green card base & cut my globe from the same paper. I backed it with light blue cardstock for contrast against the map background. I finished with an *explore* sentiment … it will be a birthday card for a guy who loves to travel.
You are so clever! Using the old atlas page is perfect for your die cut globe. I’ve really got to investigate Die-Versions (a new company to me) as well as the local book sales. As an ex-library employee, I know how many old books end up in the recycle bin. I’m going to look at them much differently from now on. Thanks again for the inspiration!
Wowieeee looks super awesome! I will head on over to check out the challenge. TFS!
Wow, I love that you used a page from an old atlas! Great job with the sketch. Thanks for playing along this week at CAS-ual Fridays!
