Vintage, oh how I love anything and everything vintage. If it is shabby and chippy and a little bit grubby it is just bliss. When I think about things that make me happy, vintage stuff and the hunt for it certainly does. I think I will probably end up making some cards for this section about some of the treasures I have and any new ones that come along and maybe even a card or two about any excursions to find new goodies.
I think out of all of the cards, this one may be my favorite. I absolutely adore the sweet little vintage Valentine image on the 7g ephemera card. Vintage Valentines and papergoods are one of my favorite things to collect so it was quite fitting to have this little card in my goody bag of supplies.
I used my Tim Holtz Tonic Distresser to give the edges of the ephemera and journaling cards and nice distressed edge.
And how cute is this mini sized milk cap? It is a perfect center for this corrugated die cut from Jillybean Soup.
The lace on the card is more of the Websters Pages lace I used on another card. I cut a thin strip from the wide lace to lay across the card. I really like this particular lace because it looks so vintagey. Since I collect vintage laces, it was really fitting to add a bit of lace to the card.
The typed text on this one is layered on a Jenni Bowlin Journaling Card. This card about vintage just wouldn't be right without a little touch of Jenni Bowlin on it. Her vintage products truly make me happy {sigh, sweet vintage paper bliss}.
Tomorrow's card is about Blooms. I hope you will come back to take a peek!
