Sweet Memories



I love the vintage, shabby chic look, but I have a hard time creating it ( my cards tend to have more of the "cute" look). Here is my attempt at Vintage. The image is a freebie that I found on line, which I coloured with Copics. The papers are all from my leftover scrapbox. I layered Prima flowers & added a brad for the centers. The leaves were cut from a Spellbinder's die, as were the image & it's matting. I added some self sticking pearls, ribbon & a sentiment tag. All edges & flowers were distressed with Tim Holtz's ink.
Well that's it.
Hope your day is wonderful.

Nancy, I think you do vintage beautifully, but I must say this may very well be my favorite. Your image is lovely and you have colored her so very beautifully. The shading is so wonderful. I also love the tag sentiment. Thanks for sharing with us at Sugar Creek Hollow.
