Vintage Love

Love is certainly in the air this month. Challenge  84 over at Crafty Cardmakers is hosted by Kylie. She has chosen the theme 'Vintage Love'.



 Please pop over for all the details and see what we have all been making.
There are some lovely  inspiration pictures for the challenge as well..
 Our two sponsors are  Di's Digi Downloads and  Hobby Art  offering  super prizes to our challenge winners.






I used a die cut frame for my old photo image. The frame was smeared with an old,  gold metalic paste, had to use the fingers to get in the corner of the pot.What an excuse to get messy.
The flowers and leaves  are from a Sheena Douglas  Stamp set embossed then painted with Pebeo Fantasy paint.
All the extra shading was Peeled Paint distress ink.

Thank you for stopping by,  your comments are always appreciated..
