Don't you just love this, a vintage image of a young boy sailing his homemade boat out on the lake. Brings you back, doesn't it? Lots of goodies on this card and techniques - I am terrible at card recipes, not good at food recipes either! I'll try: Again this is two postcard images, as it is popped and offset a tad (like a pinch or a dash in food recipes, LOL) I used a designer paper pack and bronse ink on the blue paper for the design and chocolate pearls (not real chocolate) as an accent and sky blue ribbon on the corners to follow the sketch and those two ivory braided pearl thingies from the notions department. I liked the braided accents even if the card front has a little boy. I finished off the inside and has a matching envelope, not shown.
Stop on by to the other design teams kitchens to see what they are cooking up with their recipes. Thank you for stopping by. Jane

ReplyDeleteJane what a sweet summer card. My son looked like that at 2! Lovely job on the sketch challenge.
ReplyDeleteYou have a way with your cards of really taking you back to that time when you work a vintage card. Your papers and details are always just right.
