Vintage Beauty

Hope everyone is doing well on this cold day.

We're expecting more bad weather here again.  I am so ready for spring.

 

To get me in the mood for spring I decided to make a birthday card with some really pretty flowers.   I also decided a nice vintage look would be a nice change

 

I used this great sketch from From the Heart.

 

 

Cute sketch right?

Then I went to Catch the Bug and found this great color inspiration.

Perfect for a vintage look!

 

 

And this is what I came up with.

 

 

I used some fabulous papers from Karen Foster.

I backed them with some pretty tan linen paper from DCWV Linen Closet stack.

I just love the colors in this.

 

I used a really nice stamp from Bugaboo.

I added some cute little ivory flowers as a nice finishing touch.
