Hi there sweet friends. I absolutely love this time of year because there are new products coming out, and I finally get to show them rather than just talk about them. I made this card on a lark last night because every time I looked at this new die, I busted out in giggles. To me, it’s just the cutest thing ever. Just this week Spellbinders released a new D’Lite Typewriter. Cute!! I had to think back to figure out what in my stash would go with it, so I grabbed one of the fabulous new JustRite Papercraft background stamps called Tufted Cling Background Stamp. On top of my background stamp I layered Spellbinders Elegant Labels Four and the new Spellbinders Labels Thirty Eight. I knew I wanted to put a bit of paper in the typewriter with a sentiment on it and I found a great one in the Call Me Soon set.
Loving the typewriter! I can see using it often!

Love the typewriter die; a great way to send alittle ‘note’ to someone.
Beautiful card Becca and I remember using an old typewriter similar like that in school. Oh, gosh, that was many years ago.
Enjoy your weekend and have a great day
this is so cute ,and works so well with the other dies .Laura O
I love anything retro . . very cute. You just never run out of ideas. You amaze me!
I could see many uses for this little typewriter (of course, this also has a way of ageing us). Not you Becca, you’re too young for the typewriter era. I also love the time when Spellbinder comes out with all the new dies. So exciting. Looking forward to the great drawings from this fab company!!
Hugs to you Becca,

Just the Rite Type of card! Love the positioning of the sentiment. Love Helen
I love this card. Elegant and beautiful as always! Anyone would love receiving a card from you! TFS Hugs!!
Adorable!
I wondered how anyone would use the typewriter and this is just such a great card. I love how you have the paper coming out of it.
Interesting that you seem to have the same typewriter for the background.
I absolutely LOVE this card! That typewriter is adorable, and you’ve used it perfectly! You’re amazing, Becca!!!
Love this…yet another die to add to my wish list!
Great card. Love the little typewriter. I actually remember typing on one very similar that belonged to my Grandma. Don’t even want to think about typing on one now, but it sure is cute on a card!
This is amazing card!!! Excellent idea)
Love it.
You can take “cute” and make it so elegant!
Hi Becca. Brilliant card, I love it. The typewriter is gorgeous, so cute! Take care.
I, too, think this typewriter is a cutie!! I think it would be really good for ‘man’ cards, as well. There are some new papers coming out that will suit this die especially well. Now, if I can get my hands on some of these inspirational bits before next CHA rolls around…!!! Hate that lag time between when you see ’em and when you can actually purchase them.
What a different and unusual die shape – love the way you’ve used it.
A mist have for my die collection. Your card is delightful!
I MUST agree this die is just a ‘blast from the past’ — I’ve envisioned using it too with a piece of paper with one of those sentences typed over & over in typing class that contained each/every letter of the alphabet. Don’t imagine we’ll find that stamp anywhere! So I’ll have to just have to make up that little piece of paper on my COMPUTER — LOL!!! Your card is too sweet!!!
Love the way you used this cute little typewriter, leave it to Becca to find the perfect way.
Oh wow, I own a vintage Remington portable that looks just like that die! Your card is fantastic. The little typed message is so sweet. The typewriter die will be a must-have for me.
What memories. Great creation. Love it!
I wonder do children today know what a typewriter is. When I went to high school, we only had two electric ones. The rest were manual. Really like this card.
Adorable card! Love the typewriter I imagine you have stirred a lot of thoughts with your blog followers like me with this card, remember the good ole days!
