You Have my Heart


I so love the vintage look!!!!  Valentine day just calls to me to make one and try a few different things to see if I can do that!!!  I wanted to see if my imagine could cut chip board which I was afraid to do because I didn't want to mess up my machine.  I have to say I was impressed with it and I didn't have to change out my blade or multi-cut it numerous times to get a clean cut!!!   I embossed it with a script cuddle bug folder, painted it the color I wanted it and distressed it with vintage photo distress ink.  I wanted a slight sparkle so I glimmer misted it.  K 7 Company has some of the cutest cut vintage cut outs and this little girl was so adorable. I found a couple cuts on the imagine more cartridge that  i used and distressed .  I am still am learning sizing.  The base of the frame is from the same cart.  All in all I am pleased with the way this card came out but still have so much to learn and try.  I am so enjoying myself and challenge all to give a old fashion vintage look to one of your cards!!!  Thanks for looking and stopping by......  till next time!!!
