A little Vintage

Good Morning Dear Friends,

Hope you are all well and are
having some nice summer weather.
Ours was great during May,
but June has been cloudy and rainy.
Actually that is the usual around here.
It should get sunny again in July - hopefully!

I am finally back from my Disneyland Adventure.
What fun we all had!!!
I am just amazed at everything there,
and how clean it is!! Everyone we met, in lines
or in stores were so kind and helpful.

Unfortunately the night we returned home
my D-I-L's Grandmother fell and broke
her hip and the doctor didn't expect her
to live more than a couple of days.
I stayed to babysit while she went
to Winnipeg for the funeral etc.

Well, it's about time we talked about Magnolia-licious
The Challenge is on till June 24th at midnight!
This one is 'Lucious Lace'
Can be paper lace too....

I used #3043 Vintage Bridal Couple from
the new 'Special Moments Collection'.

June has always been the month for
Weddings.
I really tried to make this card
'Vintage' since the stamp is Vintage.
Don't know how I did?

You can look here:

I used some old ecru lace that I have
had for ages. I used it all around the card
and made a flower out of it as well.

I have wanted to use feathers for a long
time and thought they would be
OK because Vintage Hats all have
feathers on them :o)
as well.

The Sentiments are from LOTV.
I made the pin and used another
Pearl for the flower centre.



I started with Kraft card stock from SU
Then added a dark peach card stock from Bazzil.
My design paper is from Graphic 45.
I also used my very latest Spellbinder Dies
called Radiant Rectangles.
Every piece has been distressed with
TH Antique Linen.

One last look up close for you:


I am really sorry to say that
I forgot about writing down the
colours I used. They were all
Copics of course :o(

HAVE YOU ORDERED FROM THIS

THE STAMPS ARE SO WONDERFUL!
YOU MAY WANT TO ORDER SOON 
BEFORE THEY ARE GONE AND YOU
HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE RE-ORDER.

I love your card Candy.
The lace around the edges gives it a beautiful vintage finish and I loved how you used the same lace to make the flower. Gorgeous.
