Springtime Smiles

Hi again all. I bought a 6 x 6 paper pack of Vintage looking background papers a few weeks ago from K and Company. I thought they would make a perfect backdrop for this silhouette stamp from Stampin' Up. Vintage is not a style that I do, but I see lots of examples around blog land and they look so pretty, so I wanted to give it a try.

I've used April's Sketch For You To Try for the layout. After crinkling up the papers, they were sponged with Tim Holtz distress inks, then sanded with a sanding bar around the edges, including the  cream card base.

Supplies

Stamps: Easter Blossoms by Stampin' Up

Card stock: TE choice buttercream, SU ridding hood red, TE medium green

Patterned papers: K and Company

Ink: SU early expresso, Tim Holtz Distress Ink in linen and corduroy brown

Other: SU vintage brads, SU crochet lace, Sizzix Bow Strings EF, scalloped circle Nestie, sanding block, the Big Shot, and dimensionals

Happy Stamping,

Colleen
