I was very fortunate to have been asked to do a guest DT spot over at Stamping Sensations.
Their challenge this month is a subject which is close to my heart as it's 'PRETTY IN PINK'!
So here is my contribution -
The papers are from Raspberry Road called 'Antelbellum'. I did some random stamping in Vintage Sepia ink using a flourish stamp from a Stempelglede set and then attacked the edges! (Normal people call this 'distressing - LOL)
I used another stamp from the same set to make the 'postcard'
Used Victorian Velvet DI on all the edges then stitched the layers together.
The vintage lace stitched across then the main image matted onto plain pale pink card added. This lovely delicate vintage image is a freebie from a fab Dutch site called JanetK which I printed onto linen textured paper.
A die cut heart with a little pearl button, a stamped tag and some hand dyed ribbon for the bow.
Inside co-ordinated to match.
So there it is! Thanks for looking and hope you can join in the challenge this month!
