Karen is our hostess for this week's color challenge, and she gave us a color combination of Blushing Bride, Mint Macaron, and Very Vanilla. Her dessert is "vintage". Karen, these are perfect colors for a vintage card. Great color combination!
My card features the Heartfelt Creations Simply Classic vintage truck. It is filled with lovely dogwood flowers and sits in the driveway near a window of a large brick house.
Unfortunately, my camera did not capture the colors well; however, I used Very Vanilla cardstock for the window frame, the wall that is inside the window, dogwood flowers and leaves, and fence. The Blushing Bride cardstock was used for the draperies that I drew, fussy cut, and embossed, and the ink on the dogwood flowers. The Mint Macaron cardstock was used for the decorative window shutters. I used colors closely related to the Mint Macaron to color the vintage truck. I also used a Gray cardstock and ink for various elements on the card.
Thank you for viewing my card and leaving a comment!!

This little truck so reminds me of one my brother rebuilt...it was mint macaroon for sure and looked so like yours...snicker...he probably wouldn't have had all those lovely dogwood blooms in his bed, but personally, I LOVE them! Your vintage brick home with ornate window dressing is great along with that little white picket fence. LOVE your card, Bev! To my, FAVs!
