As I have been creating cards with this challenge, I remembered the vintage looking die cuts I used on this card. I decided to use them! They would go great with the Technique Junkie stamp set called Vintage Travel Cases - http://techniquejunkies.com/vintage-travel-cases-set-of-5/.
I used Antique Glimmers on all of the base pieces -- the background layered on the base card stock, the tag, and even the "picture wheel" cut from background paper. For the picture wheel I used the left over glimmery inks on my craft mat on the picture wheel die cut. .
I also stamped the Technique Junkie background stamp Houndstooth Check - http://techniquejunkies.com/houndstooth-check/ - a vanilla piece of card stock. I used black Stazon ink and let it dry. Then I dipped it in Antique Glimmers over the ink. I used Stazon ink so the ink wouldn't run and create a mess. I used this piece of card stock to cut out the word "Journey" and to cut two of the vintage cars. I used a black marker to color the canopyin the top of the card and the wheels. There is a second car inside the card.
I also used these other Technique Junkie stamps to add texture here and there:
Wasted - http://techniquejunkies.com/wasted/ and Key Script - http://techniquejunkies.com/key-script/.
I stamped and heat embossed the couple on the tag and a smaller scrap of card stock. From the smaller scrap of card stock I cut strips of just the heads to fit in the windows of the picture wheel on the front of the card.
A few ribbons and the filmstrip are the "embellishments!"
Do you use die cuts on your cards?
Have a great day -- and get inky!

Hi Judy. Love your card. I always look to see what people put in the picture wheel windows. How clever of you to put the couple's faces! xoxo
