Vintage for Phindy's Place


Our challenge to you this week at Phindy's Place is to create a card or other paper-crafted project with a VINTAGE LOOK.  Since I love creating in a vintage style, this challenge is right up my alley.

I have used one of Phindy's new basic stamps from the Two Seven Oh collection called Spools to create my vintage look.  The pattern cover front and back came from an online site that sells vintage patterns and the background is not paper but fabric from my stash.  The sentiment is one of Paulette's from Create with TLC.

Image:  Spools (Phindy's Place)
Sentiment:  Create with TLC
Card Stock:  Cream (Wassau)
Colouring Medium:  Pencil Crayons (Prismacolors) with OMS (Gotrick)
Tools & Embellishments:  Fabric (My Stash), Vogue Pattern Covers (Sew Retro Vintage Patterns at Main Street Mall Online) Chalk (Mungyo), Circle Die (Nellie Snellen), Ribbon (White Rose), Round Buttons (Dress it Up), Scissors Button (Fabricland), Corner Rounder Punch (Marvy Uchida)
