Thank you for your entries to our challenge last week. I did think it was going to be a tad difficult but you all came up trumps again. Lovely cards. Now Sue is going to find it difficult to choose just 3 from them all.
This weeks theme is 'Travels Abroad' chosen by Christine. Now it was my turn to find it difficult. I am sure I am not the only crafter who finds sometimes that they have an idea and start to go down that road only to reach a complete impassse and there seems to be no way out - or to work out what final tweak is needed to put it right.
My fellow teamies came to the rescue and pointed me in the right direction after telling me nicely that I was being too critical - and hopefully the result isn't too bad.
The tweak suggested was to change the colour of the watch face and I think it made all the difference.
I used Robert Addams - Vintage Transport CD for the three train 'stamps'. Tim Holtz papers for the rest and the watch die is also from Robert Addams.
I am off on my own travels abroad in the not too distant future. My sister is kindly taking me off to France for a few days shopping. I am looking forward to the break and some serious retail therapy.

I love the idea of traveling abroad on a train (in particular Canada) and this card makes a great advert for that Carol. Have a great time on your shopping trip to France.

Great card for the theme Carol. Perhaps you should have made it as a folder for all your travel docs. Hope you have a lovely time while in France.

It is a super card Carol and I agree with Beryl, it would make a lovely folder for your travel documents. Have a lovely time in France and hopefully we will see some photo's.
