Congratulation to Beatrice for a wonderful gallery that I will go back to for ideas again! I loved several of the layouts that were somewhat alike and chose this one to case.
I started by using Ranger distressed ink and a brayer to go over the vintage music. Then I stamped the Gibson Girl on top and cut it and the dp to each fit one side for the background. Next I die cut the small rectangles and stamped them adding a black layer to the back of each. At this point they looked a little plain so I colored some spots with copics and added the Primas. After I uploaded I thought the flowers looked a bit plain so I have added a small taupe pearl to the center of each and I am pleased with the result. This was a very fun card to design and put together. I have kept the basic style, but changed everything else. Thank you Beatrice for the wonderful idea. You gallery has an enormous amount of wonderful things and was very enjoyable to see.

Oh my goodness- those stacked and framed images are just beautiful. I especially love the image of the Gibson Girl. Your soft coloring is so very pretty and the flowers you added on top are just perfect. Gorgeous card!
