Vintage card

We are still in a recycle theme on StampARTic. Pop over to the StampARTic blog to have a look at some of the ideas the designers haven given.

I decided to make an easy card. I am going to give classes in cardmaking for beginners - and this is one of the cards we are going to make.

The flowers are Mathia flowers. The thin diecut with hearts is from Memory box. The vintage girl is from a Sagen serviette. I took of the thin patterned side of the serviette, lay it on a piece of card stock (250g) with a thin layer of food plastic film between the serviette and the card stock. Then I added a thin layer of cotton to the top of the serviette and ironed the layers. 

 The corrugated cardboard came in the box with some new plates we just bought. I have also punched doilies out of coffee filters.  The butterfly is a Martha Stewart punch, and I used a part from an old sewing machine as body of the butterfly.

People often ask me if I decorate the inside of cards - and yes I often do, although very simple. The text is from a serviette from Hobbykunst, and I used the same technique as on the vintage girl.

I have also decorated the back of the card carfully. Papers from Papirdesign - tanker om fremtiden and Maja design - Vintage frost Basics. The punch is a "Punch oroud the page punch" from Martha Stewart.

I am entering these challenges:

• Trykkpressa - Hjerte
• Kreativ-scrapping  - Hjerter
