Cindy Haffner challenged the CCEE Stampers to make a card using some kind of postal mark on it whether it be a postage stamp, edge, or die cut. I challenged myself one step further by doing a vintage theme, which doesn't come easily for me.
See those sweet little flowers? They were made from a die set my good friend, Joanne, gave me when I visited with her recently. Thanks, JoJo!

Oooh, you've got some wonderful things goin' on here girl. I love the vintage look and I'm totally into your flowers that appear to be swiped with an ink pad. But, how you ever thought of using that image as the circle really has me shakin' in my boots. Glad to see all that creativity back in the gallery.

For not coming easy, Charlene. You work vintage like a pro. Emerging from your comfort zone gave us all a wonderful inspiration piece. Thanks! Love those muted greens and roses. Your burnished edged flowers are a work of art.

Love this Charlene! So vintage-delish. Those colors are warm and your design is knock out! Hugs.....
