I needed a card for a friend and thought this sentiment was just perfect, so I went ahead and made a card using Scattered Showers! I love this set! So fun!
I tried today, to be a little "vintagey"....is that a word?....but not quite sure how I pulled it off! Using all ivory tones and a little tea dye ink for distressing...which I rarely do! But I think it turned out ok!
I made the ruffle using my PTI Medium die and the scoring it with the Scor-Pal for a little diminsion!
Here is a close up of the little pearl flower I made for the umbrella!
Let me know what you think of my vintage spin! Thanks for stopping!
Just too sweet, Laurie!! I love it!

ReplyDeleteThis is ADORABLE Laurie! I love how you popped up the bottom piece, gives the card great dimension!!
ReplyDeleteAwww very nicely done! I think you got the vintage feel just right. I don't have this set but you've just made it go on my wishlist now. Thanks Laurie! ;o)
ReplyDeleteI think you pulled it off just perfect!!! I do love craft and red together!!! A very sweet card ...... Buttercup :)

Laurie, this card is awesome. The first thing that caught my eye is the little pearl flower. :) I also like how you gave dimension to the scallops! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute. Love the bling with the pearl flower. I'm sure it will bring a lot of cheer to your friend.
ReplyDeleteWonderful card, Laurie!! LOVE the dimension on the scallops and the pearls!!
ReplyDeleteAWESOME! I really like that cream umbrella Laurie. And the "ruffle" is the perfect touch. I don't think I've ever seen a more perfectly tied bow either. You rock!
ReplyDeleteVery nice! I especially like that little pearl flower on the umbrella!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work as always, my friend!!
ReplyDeleteReally pretty! I love the little pearls on the umbrella.
ReplyDeleteOh how cute - I love your little pearl flower - very vintage indeed!
ReplyDeleteYou pulled it off! Love the little pearl flower! Hoping to ink up my set today!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a soft,pretty card. I like how you added the little pearls.
ReplyDeleteI think you did a fabulous job! I love this set too and I may have to go and ink it up now that I've seen this. My favorite part is the pearl flower! Very creative.
ReplyDeleteThis is just gorgeous!! Love how you combined the red with those neutrals and the way you raised the scallop is so unique and interesting!
ReplyDeleteGreat card, Laurie. Love that sentiment and I'm sure your friend will appreciate it, too. (I hardly ever ink my edges either. Used to be because I was afraid to -- scared of ruining my creation :) -- now, I often look at my fnished card and think, man, I should have inked those edges! haha. I guess I'm making progress.)
ReplyDeleteWhat cute pearl accents on the umbrella!
ReplyDeleteLove it, the colors work great together and you definitely got the vintage feel there!!
