Vintage Vogue is here for the year!

This card was created for our Team "Shoe Box Swap" Day. I used the Vintage Vogue Stamp Set which has made an appearance in the new 2010/2011 Catalogue and how excited am I - I just love this set! I have also used the Vintage Wheel for the top left hand corner. The inks are Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive along with matching card stock with a little bit of Whisper White thrown in also.

Congratulations Keith and Karren

Saturday 14th August saw the wedding of our very special friends Keith and Karren.

A card equally as special was required. I found a template online for a "side step" card and using one of Karren's favourite stamp sets "Lovely as a Tree" this is what I came up with. The background card is Sahara Sand and Very Vanilla. I have used Chocolate Chip and Old Olive Ink and Old Olive Grosgrain Ribbon.

The wording is using a BRAND NEW stamp set "Curly Cute".

I have used the sponging technique to add colour to the background of the trees and sponge daubers to go round the edges. You can't see it in the photo however, on the letterign I have used a two way glue pen and dazzling diamonds to add a little bling. This card used 1 x A4 sheet of card stock so it's A5 in size.

I am impressed by how well this card turned out and will be using this template again but for a different design. I would like to keep this card as a one off.
