TLC263--3/08/10--Very Vintage

[debdeb]

Hello friends!

Holly pm'd me this afternoon, asking if I would host today's challenge for her. She had to make an unexpected trip to take her auntie to the hospital and did not get to make a sample for the theme she had chosen, "Very Vintage." (say a prayer for 'em!) She knew that I have been making cards with OCL's Vintage Roses, so she asked me for help. I, in turn, asked for support from my friend, Wendy!

Here is Wendy's sample: Vintage Lace

And here is mine: More Vintage Roses

[Lynn in St. Louis]

Thanks so much Deb for filling in for Holly. Keeping her and her aunt in my prayers.

So, the challenge is just to make a vintage card? I'm not sure if I have ever done anything like this before. What can I do to make a card look more "vintage"?

[BobbiesGirl]

Oh, thank you for filling in. This is my favorite subject. Probably because I AM vintage. Woo Hoo!

[debdeb]

Hi Lynn! To me, vintage means crocheted lace, distressed/inked edges, old-fashioned images, linen/canvas/muslin textures...

[Lynn in St. Louis]

Thanks Deb...this sound like fun.

Carol YOU ARE VINTAGE because according to the dictionary vintage means: excellence, maturity, and enduring appeal; classic. ;)

Hehehe! We were laughing at church last night about how gray-haired men look distinguished and women look OLD. This definition for vintage sounds so much better!

[bambi64]

I wasn't going to stamp.. wasn't going to do a challenge today at all... but darn it.. I love vintage and had pieces laying on my table that I just had to vintage up so here are BOTH of my cards!

I don't do vintage ever so this was a great challenge. Thanks Deb. I am going to try another one to see if I can go even deeper into the vintage category. For now, here is my first attempt.

Thanks Deb. I needed some more clarification. I used none of that in my first card because I don't reallly know how to do vintage but I am working on my second card to try to really "get" it better. I don't have any lace but I am going to use some of your other suggestions and try again.

[debdeb]

Don't let me restrict you, Jen! It can be so much more than just those things. Today's gallery is so gorgeous! I am lovin' it!

[Cook22]

I decided that usually I try too hard with vintage because it's not me. So today I tried not to try too hard, and am happier with what I achieved.
Thanks for stepping in, Deb, and I've been thinking of Holly and her aunt.

Good morning. Here's my card for this challenge with a few others combined in the description. It's 75 here and I'm going to be putting on my gardening gloves as soon as I get this posted. Thank you for looking, God bless, and YAY! Spring is finally here!

thank you all for looking.

[yellowrose46]

This will come in handy this week as I need to make two cards for friends who are around my age, and nearing the 'vintage' designation. I'm sure they will smile at the images!

Here is my little vintage butterfly fairy card.

Thanks for jumping in with the challenge. I pray Holly's aunt is better soon.

[yellowrose46]

Since I found my stash of vintage papers (can't remember where I got them, or who made them, but I've had them 10 years or better), I could go on making vintage cards forever. This one is for my daughter who won't remember when, but she is an avid cyclist.
Remember when?

thank you all for looking.

Thanks, Peggy! It was my privilege and pleasure!

[debdeb]

I am so tickled pink that y'all are enjoying today's challenge so much! The gallery is filled with exquisite cards!

I'd LOVE to take credit for that, but it is not mine to keep! All honors for today's vintage loveliness go to Holly! It was all her idea
