Vintage love

Tried something different today. I have been in a horrid mood since mid-morning so I don't know what I've been doing with this card... I mis-positioned many things on this card. Anyhow, here it is:


Tried a better view in the next.



The sentiment is printed. The image is a free digital stamp from Sliekje. Something that is not visible in the previous images is this clock that has been masked in the background:


The folded Label 3 is an inspiration from something similar in Laura's card (nothing close though!) and the ruffled ribbon is inspired by Heather (not close either) [both 2S4Y].

And aaah... the only bit I truly loved is the distressed red background... Loosely based on the Acrylic distressing technique in SCS.

I am entering this card for:
> 2S4Y : Laura's sketch #49
> The ABC Challenge: R is for Red.

Cheers,
Smita

  1. Hi Smita
    Yes I really believe the Spellbinder's Labels 3 will work for an easel card. It's got a beautiful shape
    For the floor: The card is folded like a normal easel card. Then I cut out a another piece the same size as the floor to glue on top. My main easel part of the card was white and I wanted a gray floor, so the floor is 2 cardstocks thick and then the pink. Then I just glued a smaller sized piece in the pink.
    Hope that answers your question
    Take care Yogi

  7. So sorry you're in a nasty mood, Smita! Hope it's better now. I hate it when I get that way. Nothing seems to turn out right when I'm feeling irritable. Your card is adorable, though. It doesn't seem to have affected your creativity at all! xxD
