This card is for today's WTUI challenge 627 - Handwriting - Yes, Your Own! I love to write letters, so I wrote three love letters on parchment paper, stained them, tied them with a ribbon, attached a TH ephemera photo in photo corners, and a bedraggled flower in the corner. I roughed up edges to look vintage, and used some distress ink for small flourishes and the word love. I hope you enjoy! TFL

You have beautiful handwriting, Kandie! It reminds me of what I have seen in old family heirlooms handed down. Perfect for a beautiful vintage card. Love the detail of tying the letters together with ribbon - and what a lovely flower.

I love the way you aged these beautifully written love letters - They look exactly like they've been tucked away for a lifetime - then found in an attic long after the original writer has passed . . . . along with mementos from that long ago love i.e. the aged photo and a pressed flower

Wonderful, Kandie!! I love how you've aged those letters and your beautiful handwriting really makes me feel like I'm in a museum looking at old WWI era love letters. Wow!
