Cathy's WT Challenge is to make your own floral bg. I stamped a floral spray in wheat then the single flower in pink and over-stamped it in wheat for a shadow effect. This lovely vintage lady is one of my favorite stamps. Stamped her in wheat, and colored her with a combo of chalk and colored pencil. Die cut the oval and matted it in brown, die cut the sentiment panels and added pearls to complete. TFL

Those flowers in the soft colours make a wonderful vintage frame for the vignette of your equally lovely wistful looking lady. Brilliant colouring of her hair, that was something that really struck me.

The vintage lover in me is really liking this I love the subtleness of the bg and how you did the over stamping in pink. The lady's portrait goes so well with the bg you've created.
