Vintage bird card

   



Hello lovelies, hope you are well! Today I am sharing my DT creation for the Mid month design over at Arty Divas.









I have created a vintage card using this beautiful bird image, which I also altered by using a text stamp along with black soot distress ink. 











Here I have added some gold leaf flakes along with cosmic shimmer acrylic glue. I found this glue to be the best to use. I dusted the excess flakes off with a soft paint brush. 

I have also adhered a Grunge number label behind the bird image. 












This beautiful paper is from Pink Monarch Prints.
The vintage music sheet is from My Porch Prints.
 

There is still time left to join in with the current challenge over at Arty Divas.

The DT would love to see your lovely creations! 
 

Thank you so much for stopping by the Den! I really do appreciate your visit! See you on the next post.

The Owls serenade

 






A wise old owl sat in an oak,
The more he heard, the less he spoke
The less he spoke, the more he heard,
why aren't we all like that wise old bird?












Hello lovelies, hope you are well! Today I am sharing a vintage owl card that I have created. 










I have used these beautiful papers from Pink Monarch Prints and this lovely vintage Owl advertisement from Pinterest. 
















To make my card, I have used some Kraft cardstock along with the Christmas junk journal papers. I have distressed all edges with Vintage Photo distress ink. Next, I tore some corrugated cardboard and adhered it to the left side of my card.








Here I have designed my own vintage library card. This is a fun way to personalise some ephemera. 


















Next, I adhered this beautiful red poinsettia along with red glitter stamens and some twine, which I wrapped around the owl image. I also added two feather die cuts from kraft cardstock. 















Thank you so much for stopping by the Den! See you on the next post!

It's a mystery! .... A tale of Sherlock Holmes!

 









Hi lovelies, hope you are well? Today I am sharing some Sherlock Holmes artist trading cards that I created for a swap over at My Altered Reality.

Each month, Kim hosts an ATC swap, with free image sheets to use in your creations. Please do visit her Blog for more details on how to enter the monthly swaps. 

















Using the 'It's a mystery' image sheets, I created three ATC's for my swap partner. I started with three blank kraft cards measured at 2.5 inches x 3.5 inches. 











For the card on the left, I decorated it with the dog tooth design paper and one of the Sherlock newspaper clippings. I then fussy cut the image of Sherlock Holmes and adhered them to the card. I have edged everything with Vintage Photo Distress ink. 

I then cut some cogs using a cog die and black cardstock. I ran those through an embossing folder to give them some extra interest. I then glued them to some vellum to give a see-through backing. 






For the card on the right; I added some vintage style washi tape, vintage ticket and a Tim Holtz mini quote sticker. 








Lastly, for the middle card, I again used the images from the free sheets provided. I took a piece of ephemera which I backed on to Kraft card stock and then used my Cropodile to add an eyelet. 









Thank you so much for stopping by, I really do appreciate your visit and kind comments!
