F4A155 Fabulous Vintage
Added to Favorite
xxxx

Photo Details
Poster: Jusmaykit

 Though I've always loved the vintage look, I only make vintage cards occasionally. This time I was inspired by a beautiful art deco embossing folder my mum-in-law gave me, kind lady that she is.

The faux wood look of the central panel was achieved using Hero Arts Shadow Ink in Soft Brown direct to paper; I lightly "danced" a sponge with this ink over the same panel to imitate spritzing.

The dry embossed panel was such fun to do: inking up the negative side of the EF with a brayer before running it through the Big Shot, then painting some shimmer paint over the raised edges, and lots over the red blossom :-)

Thanks for looking!

Oh very pretty! I never do vintage though I love the look. That EF is perfect isn't it? Love the colours you chose especially the ribbon. Super!

Wow, great card. I love the vintage also but am not so good with it! :)

Fabulous card and I too love vintage but not easy for me to do! This is outstanding! You used wonderful techniques including direct to paper and wrinkling! Very vintage looking!

I've only recently become enchanted by vintage and the shabby chic look, and your card is a lovely example! I absolutely love the blue embossed panel that you shabbied up so prettily, and the blue ribbon. I like the treatment on the center panel as well. Beautifully done! Thanks for sharing.
