Smile

Love the colours in the Hand Stamped Sentiments swatch this week so sat down and made a vintage/shabby card. 


I've gone with soft versions of highland heather and coastal cabana and just put pops of orchid oasis in (flower centres, corsages) as it's darker than the other colours and I didn't want it to overwhelm them. There are speckles of coastal cabana on both the tag and background paper as well. 

Materials used:
  • stamps - Entomology (Tim Holtz)
  • card - very vanilla (SU), sweet vintage digital junk journal (Etsy)
  • distress oxide ink and spray - antique linen
  • other - tag die, Big Shot, lace (SU), Bouquet flowers (TH), orchid oasis decorative dots, sponge dauber, craft foam, Dimensionals, distress tool, highland heather and orchid oasis Blends markers, BG34 Copic marker, mini paper dolls (TH), frosted crystal embossing powder (Ranger), heat tool

Thanks for dropping by.

Cheers
Kerry
