I was so happy to see the two new gear sets.  I had just bought some gear dies and I couldn't wait to use them with these darling new sets...

Here are both cards...

 The first card I used the background stamp and embossed it with TH distress EP.  
I used the two new die sets on this card.

The second card I was digging around my papers and found some really old gear paper that I thought would make a great theme card.  I used some brads the colors in the paper.


Be sure to stop by my Team Members and give them some love...

Here's the Design Team:

Come on back tomorrow for more creativity.

    Nice job! How timely that you had just bought the gear dies. Love it when stuff like that happens. :) Really like the gear background you made on the first card and love the brads and your old gear paper you unearthed on the second.

    I love things with gears! I'm really drawn to the brown tones in the first card and the die cut gears contrast so well with the bkgrd.

    Wow! Whenever I see gears I think vintage-y looking things like your first card. Then I saw your second card and I was amazed! How awesome! You really inspired me to think outside of the box.
