and I'm also entering this card for Betsy Veldman's challenge to use something vintage and both the fabric and the lace I've used are from my grandmother so I thought it would fit perfectly.
From EM page:
"This challenge requires you to create a vintage project using the color challenge. Vintage is a new trend in interior design and of course paper crafting. A vintage style can be showcased in a variety of ways, including inking edges, using old buttons, crocheted embellishments, and adding other antique elements. Projects can include color by using cardstock and/or patterned paper, instead of by coloring stamped images. Don’t forget that a vintage style can be incorporated into other paper craft ideas, including scrapbook layouts, mini albums, and other altered art.

The main colors are highlighted in Polaroid inspired color swatches. Keep the colors of your project as close to the colors in the challenge image. Remember, colors can be incorporated into your project in more ways than cardstock.
*White/Cream may be used as an additional neutral color."

ReplyDeleteNoticed this card last week and am just getting time to comment after getting my own completed today. Love the balloons and how you have framed them inside the circle. The embossed clouds are so subtle, but such a pretty detail! It's all very pretty! (I was in on Betsy's challenge, too! Wasn't that fun?!)
