First Card in a Long Time!

Had a chance (and the motivation!) to sit down today and get crafty with my new SU! preorder stuff. Here's a card I made using the set Vintage Vogue which will be available Jan 4th, 2010.

This set reminded me a bit of a SAB set called Best Blossoms and I based this card on a card I made using that set. You can see that card here.

I first cut a mask out to make the rectangle shape using a large post it note and then sponged the area inside the mask onto Naturals Ivory cardstock using Crushed Curry ink. The flourishes are stamped in Old Olive and the flowers in Rich Razzleberry. The big one is popped up and layered. I added some spritzing using a Razzleberry marker and a spritzing tool for some added interest.

Thanks for stopping by today! Sorry it's been so long between posts :)

Have a great day and a Happy New Year!

Looks like I stopped in on just the right day!! I love your card with the Vintage Vogue images......I havent stamped with mine yet. And like you I loved (and still do) best blossoms. I will always keep that set. TFS!!! Happy New Year!

Wow, Angela, what a card! You've inspired me to make my own version of this card (I don't have those stamps or anything terribly close) but the idea and layout and colors are STUNNING and I will hate myself if I don't try.

Welcome back!
