Vintage Love Birds - To a Wonderful Mum!

Hi everyone!

I tried my hand at Vintage today, I was going to go bright and Spring like with this stamp but mum keeps saying how she loves vintage at the moment so I thought I'd try that!

Think I need some tips from Mrs Queen of Vintage Kat!!

I've just bought some new distress inks to try and used Vintage Photo on this card!



I used:

Moonbeam Meadow - Love birds stamp
Promarkers
Maja Design - Vintage Spring Basics Papers
Flower buttons - Papermania
Ribbon - The works 
Vintage photo distress ink
Me to you sentiment stamp
Tattered lace Branch die cut





Have a lovely Weekend!

    A beautiful vintage card, Lucy, and those little love birds are adorable. The distress ink looks amazing - I don't have much success with it so maybe I need some tips on it from you.

    ooooh, Queen of Vintage...not sure I deserve that title but I love it! I think we might have to share the crown though if your card is anything to go by...you really got the soft vintage feel nailed :-) The inking works a treat and your colouring of the image is superb.
