It's been a while since I tackled anything truly Vintage but I just happen to have some new dies which are just perfect!Today I'm using two new bigz dies and the Tres Chic Paper pad by Studio Light.
- Sizzix Bigz Die - Scroll by Tim Holtz (661816)
- Sizzix Bigz Die - Sweet Lotus by My Life Handmade (661715)
I started by cutting out all the elements from the gorgeous vintage papers together with a rectangular background before applying some Distress Inks (Old Paper and Pumice Stone) to the edges and adding some stamped detail .
Next, I sanded the edges of all the die-cut pieces and the background and further distressed the edges of the background using the blade of my scissors. After curling and twisting the petals of my flower and assembling the two stamen fringes, I attached the flower and scroll to the background.
Just a couple of details to go, my stamped sentiment and some twisted twine....
I distressed the card background using the aforementioned inks and added the stamped detail.
Mother's Day on Sunday, I wonder who I could give this card to?
Thanks for stopping by.
