This is a birthday card for a dear friend who is a fabulous baker - you know the kind that people ask to do their wedding cakes. Plus she has been like a mom to me. It is also for the CC177 GroovyWhiteSandy and Crafty Secrets 27 challenges -where you needed to tear and sew. I used Old Paper Distress Ink to help tone down colors for the vintage look. The stripes in the wallpaper are Sahara Sand but the photo doesn't quite pick this up.Thanks for looking!

This is soooooooo awesome!!! Love how you've made this image come 'front and center' by using the dark bg. Your stitching is perfect and the additional embellishments really add an extra vintage touch. Nicely done! So glad you found time to come play the challenge with us!!!
