You mean the world to me

 

Hello lovelies, hope you are keeping well! Tonight I am sharing a vintage card that I have created using this stunning free image from Gecko Galz. How beautiful! Thank you to Leanne for sharing her wonderful images.

To create my card I have used these beautiful papers from Manu design studio, plus lots of stamps and ephemera.

I hope that I have inspired you to create your own vintage cards!

Hello lovelies, hope you are keeping well! I'm up quite late (or very early!) today to share some vintage well dressed animal cards that I have created. I have used these fabulous images from Gecko Galz; aren't they just wonderful?! 

Here I have used these lovely vintage spring pages from Kate crafts store. I have also used the vintage fabric and vintage plaid paper sets too.
