This card is in honour of Karen (Art Deco Diva) who is this week's well deserved Featured Stamper. I love Karen's work and had a hard time choosing which card to CASE but then I saw this -
I love vintage/shabby chic cards. I went with a similar design to Karen's and, instead of the fabulous bird cage & bird, I used this digi image I had printed out some time ago on shimmer c/s. Added the ribbons, flower, pearl and sentiment. Not quite as pretty as Karen but I am happy with it!
Enjoy your week in the spotlight, Karen! TFL!

This is one gorgeous card my friend. I adore this wonderful image and how you showcased it all with this gorgeous dsp. I love the off white flower, ribbon, bow and sentiment. This has such a wonderful romantic, vintage feeling to it and it is superbly made. I am really impressed with your gorgeous card! Thank you for playing along this week- this means a lot to me! Hugs! ~Karen.

I think your card is absolutely lovely! My eye was caught by that beautiful velvet ribbon and wonderful bow and then it traveled on to the bow. Fabulous!

Love this! It is such a nice tribute to Karen's card! It is amazing how the change in colours really makes it so different while replicating the gorgeous shabby chic style!

What a pretty Victorian card - I love that vintage atomizer and it brings back memories of the one my mother used when I was child - I always thought it was SO elegant! That lovely satin bow and dimensional flower complete the vintage feel.
