Made this card for the IC this weekend. I love vintage style art, so I had a tough time narrowing down my choice of inspiration from the website, "Victorian Trading Company". I finally chose this Patio Clock as my inspiration piece. I loved the image of a clock hanging from a tree branch.
I made my my tree and tiny bird with die cuts. The time piece was stamped on cardstock with brown ink, embossed with clear EP then aged with distress inks.
