Oh, Hello vintage card

Don’t you just love all the little details that give this card a vintage feel? You can dye the little flower but I chose to leave it Vanilla as I didn’t want it to compete with the blue flowers in the paper. I also inked up the flower image using markers (Lucky Limeade and Island Indigo) but stamped off once on scratch paper before stamping it over the greeting. This gives a softer, lighter shade behind the bold image of the greeting. Stampin’ Up! offers a matching Large Scallop Edgelit that will trim the embossed scallop edge at the bottom but I wanted to do a little “fussy cutting” and trimmed it with scissors instead.

Supplies:

Stamps: Oh, Hello
Ink: Early Espresso, Lucky Limeade, Island Indigo
Paper: Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla, So Saffron, Tea for Two Designer Series Paper
Accessories: Delicate Designs Embossing Folder, Victoria Crochet Trim, Pearls, Linen Thread, Vanilla Flower Trim, 1 3/4″ Circle Punch, 2 3/8″ Scallop Circle Punch, Paper-piercing Tool, Essentials Paper-piercing Pack, Stampin’ Pierce Mat, Dimensionals, Glue Dots
