I chose to make a vintage style thank you for today's sketch. I guess I'm in a pink, lace, girly kind of mood. The girl image is a photo stamp which I stamped with StazOn on a glossy paper. I sponged over her in Distress Inks in tea dye and spun sugar. Part of the bg paper is a page of old text from a book I picked up at Half Price Books.

Wonderful card. I love how you gently colored your image, it looks so authentic! Your book page is such a lovely touch, and love all of the sweet vintage detail that you included. TFS

Half Price Books! I used to love that place until they only gave me $10 for hundreds of dollars worth of stuff. I was pretty irritated. I love books very much, am reading two at the same time right now. Anyway, I love your little girl image, I'm going to try that stamping on glossy today because of this card. Those distress inks look wonderful.
