Good Morning everyone and Happy Friday! It's Alphabet Challenge time and today's letter is... V for Vintage! I'm so excited about our challenge this time because I think I finally made a real Vintage style card! I struggle to make something look aged and distressed... so I'm very happy with the way this card turned out!! :)
This fabulous image (Bearskin Rug Helper) is actually a B&W photo from my PrintMaster Platinum DVD that I changed to a Sepia tone... so NO coloring! I roughed up the edges with the Tim Holtz Paper Distresser tool before added my Walnut Distress Ink. The sentiment is from Crafty Secrets and the postage stamp/die cut is from Whimsy Stamps. I used a CB die for the tag, a QuicKuts die for the trees and a MS punch for the holly. To finish it up I tied the tag with some ribbon and added a couple different sizes of pearls!
I hope you can join us and be sure to stop by the challenge blog and check out the gorgeous inspiration from the DT!
That's it for now... but I will be back tomorrow with another card! Have a wonderful day and thanks so much for stopping by!
