Nostalgic Bithday Wishes

It feels so good to play with stamps and inks 'just because' - not that I don't enjoy creating for the Design Teams I am on - I do love that and we all know they are the best Companies - but sometimes we just need to touch base with our 'beginnings' and that for me is vintage.




 I have always loved the Material girl stamp set from Crafty Secrets and have looked at it so often thinking about what to create - it was definitely overdue to be 'inky.'




I also used the 'Notably Ornate' set by Stampin' Up! which is a favourite, so could not resist combining the two to create some cards for Card Design Class next week - this is the first of two.




The frame by Stampin' Up, the bling from Want2Scrap©  and the sentiment by JustRite® Papercraft.  I have used IMAGINECrafts®/Tsukineko® Delicata™ Pigment Ink for sponging - it has the the right amount of shimmer for this nostalgic card.




The Labels Twenty-Three  and the Grand Labels Twenty-Three Spellbinders® Nestabilities® have been cut using the  Spellbinders Grand Calibur® Machine I have also used
Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L™ E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser

  13. Absolutely SO Lovely, Linda! Just as sweet as could be. I too have been wanting to use my Material Girl stamps and they've been neglected but you card has inspired me to use them. Your die cuts also look wonderful, and you're SO creative! Thanks so much for sharing with us. It's a real blessing to have you play along with us.
