CCAYR mid-month inspiration


This is my first design card for Christmas cards all year round May challenge: vintage. Please click on the link to see the lovely crafting of others in the team and you can join in our challenge here.

As my theme for this week's CHNC challenge 228 is 'vintage/shabby chic' I'm also showing this there - the challenge is only open until 22:00 UK time tonight, so there's still time to join in.

The background of the card was made using two Embossalicious folders run through the eBosser and then brushed with stormy sky distress ink. The lovely vintage scene was rescued from an old card.

  14. Hazel, Another gorgeous piece, love the embossed background. I have a few embossing folders and need to use them more, brushing in on the raised surface is a wonderful idea. Thank you for the inspiration and thank you for sharing this with us on the May challenge on Recycle, Re-Purpose & Re-Invent.
    Always lovely come and visit you. :) Chris / CS Designs
