Time to play with Friday Mashup again, I liked the simplicity of this layout because I am trying to be a bit more clean and simple in my creations and I struggle a bit with that.
I have stayed with the sketch fairly closely except for the corners which are on opposite sides to the sketch! I wanted to focus on the details of this card, making it a bit vintagey (if that's even a word) by sanding the DSP layer and adding some sponging and sanding again until I was happy with the look. I used some of the Crochet Trim and sponged it with Soft Suede to give it a bit more colour. The butterflies were an easy edition, and I wanted to keep the centre fairly simple so used a small sentiment and soft colours. The pearls on the butterflies and the corners were the final touch.
Happy Stamping
Oh so Vintagey! Love your creativity in both cards and inventing words.

ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty.. I really like how it's clean but still have that vintage/shabby chic look to it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a stunning design, Monique! I love it! I am so NOT confident doing Vintage. I even have the distressing kit ... and still can't manage a nice one! You sure have got this one right! Hugs xxx
