My idea of vintage



At the moment I am at home listening to loud music on a Friday night, can't ask for much more, the neighbours haven't complained as yet but they probably never will as they are musician's. Anyway tomorrow I have an early start so I better go to bed soon. 

As soon as I saw the trigger picture at Moxie Fab World I knew I had to play along. I just love the brightly coloured room with the ornate furniture, wouldn't mind a room like this in my home. When I first started my card it was going to be completely different, it was going to have a simpler look but sometimes simple can be a bit too simple. For this card the first thing that I did was print the sentiment directly onto the card  stock using my now favourite font being "Before the rain" in 26 point. I then rubbed on the rose rub-on's to give the card a vintage look and I stuck the chipboard chairs which have been stamped with a gold stamp pad  to the card using self adhesive dimensional foam. Lastly the little hearts on the chairs have been punched out and stuck to the chairs with self adhesive dimensional foam. 

Hope everyone has a lovely weekend, the weather isn't looking too good in Sydney, lets hope it holds up as I can't stand anymore rain.
