Vintage Card

 

Hi There! With our Challenge theme on the Bee Crafty Facebook group being Vintage I thought I would show you how I created this vintage style card. 

I began by blending Vintage Photo Distress ink across a piece of card measuring  4x4" .

Next I randomly stamped patches of the Crackle stamp in Tea Dye distress ink.

I also used the Tea Dye ink to add some shading using the distressed diamonds dinkable. 

After that I added some stamped leaves in the same colour. 

I decided that the background needed some contrasting colour, so added some stamping using Bundled sage and the Journal Art Elements #3 stamp set. 

on a separate piece of card I stamped the large Dandedaisy using Pinecone Versafine clair ink

I coloured it using washable pens and a wet paint brush and cut it out. 

I found a scrap of card that was blended with vintage photo ink, and stamped the sentiment using the Versafine Clair ink on to it, before cutting it out.  

Finally I added the background to an ivory deckle edged card, then added the flower and sentiment using 3d foam pads. 

I used: 

5x5" deckle edged card

4x4" piece of white card

Crackle Background stamp

Mixed leaves stamp set

Journal Art Essentials #3 stamp set

Doodle Art dandedaisy stamp set

Ticker Tape stamp set - I used set 2

Dinkables set 2

Distress ink in Vintage photo, Tea Dye and Bundled Sage

Watercolour medium (I used washable pens) 

versafine clair ink (I used Pinecone)

Hope this inspired you enough to have a go at this month's challenge!
