Vintage

Hello,

I have created card for Cheery Lynn Vintage Challenge.

Whenever I think Vintage, for some reason, I think Paris. So this is what I did.


I used Embossing Folder from Tim Holtz collection, distressed edges, inked up the raised parts and just all over where I felt the color needed. I have created flowers added little pearls on the petals and bigger pearls all over. Used sentiment from JustRite and put it all together.

This card actually took a long time to make. It's not because it's super complex, only because it took me a while to figure out "how" I want to put it together.

One of my friends said that I should open my own business and sell the cards I make. But if it would take me that long to figure how to make cards, my business would go bankrupt. :)
Besides the moment something "I love" becomes something "I have to do" ... it's not longer fun for me.
