Hi there! It's time for a new challenge over in the Bee Crafty Stamps Facebook group so here is a little inspiration to get you started on our theme, which is VintageI began by smooshing Vintage Photo and Speckled Egg Distress oxide onto a coaster sized piece of Mixed media card.
Next I used the crackle background stamp to add some more vintage photo ink.
Using matte medium I added a few pieces of book page, then used a tag inkable to add a little more speckled egg ink.
I also added some stamping in vintage photo ink
Once I was happy I added a spray or two of Distress spritz in Weathered wood.
I used a small strip of Ledger Catalyst card, edged with brown ink to create a border across the centre.
On a separate piece of paper I stamped the smaller Dandedaisy 3 times in Portobello ink.
I used distress ink to paint in the colour before cutting them out.
Finally I stuck them to the coaster, along with a lightly inked wordy sticker, and finished off by adding a little shadow around the flowers with Black ink and a wet brush.
I used:
Distress oxide inks in Vintage Photo, Speckled egg and Black soot
Distress inks in Victorian velvet, Bundled sage, Squeezed Lemonade and Speckled egg
Book page
Matte Medium
I hope this has inspired you to enter the challenge. It is a great opportunity to use old stamps, scraps of lace and old photos too.
Thanks for looking!

Such a wonderful vintage look with lots of interest with the smooshed background and added stamping and stencilling, and the bits of book page and strip of catalyst card across the middle give great texture Sally, and beautifully finished with the pretty added flowers across it and the inked Wordy sticker..a fabulous coaster. x
