Tickled Pink Stamps Challenge #45 - Vintage

It's time for a new challenge on Tickled Pink Challenges and this week our theme is 

VINTAGE

I love making tags when I am trying to create creating a vintage look. I used one of the Lil Victorian Christmas stamps  - Lil Victorian Christmas Lolita Ivy - perfect for the theme! She's been coloured using copic markers, trimmed out and mounted on 3D foam dots. 


My papers are Basic Grey. I've added some lace, satin ribbon and some metal embellishments. To finish I added some Kaisercraft pearls. The music note/butterfly card and the vintage image are both from an eBay purchase. 



REMEMBER to use an image from the Tickled Pink Stamps Line on your project!
The winner of this challenge will receive 1 DIGITAL Stamps of their choice

Good morning. Today I have a couple of cards to share. I was too ill last week to blog them, but thankfully I'm almost back to normal now.

Colo{u}r Me Creative's new challenge started on Friday night and we would love to see you create a Black & White OR Sepia project with a pop of one other colour.

CES Challenges - Vintage Christmas

Good morning. We have SNOW!! Well it's only a sprinkling but we still have some :D It's so pretty to look at but man is it cold. The kids asked me to light the fire as downstairs is so much cooler than upstairs in this house, lol. I'm thinking it's a movie & crafty day :D

  This week's challenge on CES Challenges, as chosen by Jen, is

Vintage Christmas

Vintage really used to take me out of my comfort zone but I am slowly learning to LOVE it. 


I used a mix of papers - My Mind's Eye "I Believe" and Pink Paislee "Father Christmas". All of my papers have been distressed with my scissors and inked with Antique Linen .

The beautiful ribbon is by East of India. I just adore their ribbon, the quality is second to none. Unfortunately I'm almost out and the store I used to get it from no longer carries it :( So I you know of somewhere that does carry it AND ships to Ireland please do let me know!!


I also made this card to enter into Cardz n Scrapz forum challenge, which ended yesterday. They wanted to see Lace, Paper Pleating and Distressing. I think I got them covered, lol. And I'm entering the Simon Says Stamp challenge - "Let it Snow"

The prize for this challenge is a set of ''Father Christmas'' 6x6 papers by Pink Paislee.


Have a wonderful Saturday!!
