This fortnight at My Partner in Crafting Crime it's Vintage time. We also have our first Guest Designer Angie Hunt taking part in our challenge and in our Interrogation Room.
I've been wanting to create a sign for my room for ages now and this was the perfect time to get it done. I used the Vintage Market Alphabet from Tim Holtz as well as the elegant flourish die too. The paper is also from his book and i've distressed it with Old Paper. The edging, swirl and wording have all been coated with Picket Fence crackle paint. The metal bits are also from Mr. Holtz's Ideeologogy colletion. Yes I'm an addict!
For my card I used the Basic Grey pad Capella. I paper pieced her coat and hat and added a few pearls for her buttons. She's coloured in with Promarkers and then the edges are chalked. I got to try out my new Sizzix swirls and I have to say i'm in love. The pearly lace is something Mam's had in the shop for years that i've taken proud ownership of.
I'm entering this into the following Challenges:
My something old is the pearly lace, think it's going on five years now
and the something new are the Basic Grey papers and Sizzix swirls.
Don't think I could have put anymore layers onto this. LOL!!!
Creatilicious - Vintage (snap!! :-D)
Now hop over to My Partner in Crafting Crime and get those entries in! :-D
