a very vintage adventure


For my Card Buffet at the end of this month, I had five designs picked out, one bright Valentine card and two masculine designs which could be Valentine or birthday cards.  I didn't have anything feminine in the lineup at all - the other two are gender-neutral thinking of you cards.  I really thought something frilly that could be a Valentine or a birthday card was called for, but it took me some time to find the right inspiration - Lesley posted it at the Challenge today, so I paired it with Match the Sketch #107:
stamp sets - A Dozen Thoughts, Rose Wonder, Timeless Textures; ink - Blushing Bride, Crumb Cake, Tip Top Taupe; card stock - Blushing Bride, Very Vanilla; Big Shot with Deco Labels framelits; 1" dotted lace trim - Tip Top Taupe; Very Vintage buttons
