a little bit vintage

Today's card features this lovely bird stamp from Crafty Individuals. I stamped it on a piece of textured card, and coloured with copics. The circle is also cut from the same scrap of card. The background is DP which I added some coloured to with tattered rose di, (masking off the centre first) The edges are distressed, with a little lace tucked in here and there, and then (very) roughly stitched around. The whole thing was then attached to a white card. I don't know who the branch diecut is from, it was a leftover from a class I did
I would like to enter this at Crafty Individuals for a/g
Rubberdance for vintage brown, dusky blue, & faded rose
Allsorts for vintage
Pixies crafty workshop (I used snippets of lace and textured card)

Have a great week and happy crafting

Di said...: So pretty Glennis - and you put me to shame with your stitching! I keep meaning to get my little sewing machine out - bought purely for paper to save the good machine, but I keep forgetting to use it!

This card has such a soft and pretty vintage look to it - gorgeous work.

Hugs
