Inspired By #87 ... a note to you

 
This week's IB87 inspiration is a sure sign that
everything old is new again, right?
 
I dug out a very old 99-cent-stamp to help make an 'enamel pin' for my card... a set of MFT bifocals should help the reader read that tiny message...
 
 
 
Hope to see what inspires you this week in the
Inspired By … a note to you
gallery!

What a fantastic take on the inspiration, Michele ... the aqua with the black and white is delicious ... and those cool glasses ... brilliant! There's that yummy hemstitch again too! I have a typewriter just like the one in the photo ... maybe not in such pristine condition but pretty good for 50+ years old! Hugs, Anita :)
