Country Flowers - Vintage

Country Flowers - Vintage

 


Today I am participating in the Crafty Collaborations Technique Tuesday Blog Hop.  The theme is - Vintage.  I have chosen to represent "vintage" through designer series paper that looks weather worn.   Then I added a touch of "eyelet" which reminds me of my childhood.   Later in this post, you will find a list of bloggers that have shared their "vintage" creativity as well.  Just click in each of their live links to be directed to each of their blogs.

I am so in love with the Country Flowers bundle right now.  I just can't get enough of creating with all the options in this bundle.  I hope you are inspired to give this card a try!
