This is my second card for this weeks Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge: http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/
it is totally different from the first one. This card is definitely a vintage one which has been created with this gorgeous vintage image by D'Amour Allure. The image has been embossed in black and lightly coloured with chalks and a blender pen, all edges are sponged and then it is layered into Pomegranate CS.
This in turn, has been popped up on foam dots and layered onto embossed white CS - I have used the Distressed Stripes folder and have cut it into 3cm strips, inking and distressing around all edges, layering it onto the Pomegrante CS and used a Cuttlebug Die, which has been cut in half, on each side as a frame.
This gorgeous cameo, which was part of a RAK from my dear friend Pam (aka pam124) has been attached with about three glue dots on top of the gold thread which has been wrapped around the layered image. It has all been attached to the stunning DP from DCWV - I love the dramatic look of these colours with this image - a bit of contrast happening here!

Vintage and beautiful! Vintage cards are what I always think of when I think of you, Linda. Super image and a perfect cameo from Pam. The CB die cuts are just what was called for with this image. Love it!!
