Hi!
Tamara here with you. Today I have a vintage themed card for you. I used one of the older images from my Stamping Bella stamp collection. This beautiful image is called I love my pets-abella. Yup, that’s me too, love my cats!!
I rarely use these vintage Pion papers because they are not very white, they all look a bit old and I really like using bright white on my cards. I had these in my drawer and since I really like them I decided to give them a spotlight. lolI stamped the image using Archival ink on 300g HP watercolour paper and then coloured it using Distress ink pads.
Distress ink colours used:
skin: vintage photo
cheeks: worn lipstick
hair: antique linen, walnut stain
dress: victorian velvet, stormy sky, black soot
cat: black soot
dog: pumice stone, black sootI cut out the image using stitched oval die and then mat it with the (old) decorated oval. I cut out some small flowers and added them to the card.
Sentiment “Happy Birthday from all of us” comes with the image.
Have a lovely Sunday!
Hugs, t.
Such a lovely card. Love the oval with the lacy look and the background. Pretty flowers and cute cat and dog. The colors are so soft and pleasing to the eye.
Well she is just stunning! Beautifully colored!
