Make a Card at FSC

Where have the last 2 weeks gone!  Thanks goodness I was organised with my DT card for Fashionable Stamping Challenges where this fortnights theme is 'Make a Card' - just cards, nothing else.  Once again we are sponsored by Flonzcraft who are offering one lucky random winner a $20 spend in their online store.

I have used one of the Gibson Girl images, together with Graphic 45 Ladies Diary and a CI postcard stamp and an old book page, torn and inked with Vintage Photo DI  The backing paper is K&Co.  My shabby flower was punched with a Retro punch.

It would be lovely if you could join us for this challenge and if you need any inspiration the rest of the DT have some wonderful cards to show, so please pop over to the main blog and take a look.

I am entering this at:
  Stampin for the Weekend - Anything Goes
  Crafting by Design - Anything Goes
  Artistic Inspiration - Anything Goes
  365 Cards - Vintage with a Stamped image
  Penny Black & More - Anything Goes

I feel as if I am still playing catch up with visiting and Mr Mojo keeps going walkabout which isn't helping - , but I've got some craft time planned for tomorrow, so hopefully Mr. 'M' will make an appearance!

Enjoy the rest of the weekend whatever you are doing.

That vintage style appeals to me so much and I like the hints of colour here and there and the shabby style background.
