Tall & Skinny Vintage Birthday Card

Hello everyone,

Here is my newest creation:


I decided to go with simple and elegant vintage look...


I used papers from Pion Design and Avalon to create the background. I used a metal filigree corner to embellish the strip of cardstock.


The sentiment was created on my PC and printed on white cardstock, framed into 6 layer cardstock frame covered with gesso and embellished with pearls. The flowers were handmade by me, and shabby bow was also hand died with Milled Lavender Distress Ink.


I am entering this card into following challenges:

Scrap & Craft Inspiration Challenge #6 "Frame It"

Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge "A is for..." April Blooms

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge "Spring Flowers"

Vintage Utfordring #99 Beads/Pearls

Mojo Monday #392


and

Seize The Birthday "Tall & Skinny"

I hope you enjoyed this post..
Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by...
