Here is my card for the June Sassy Stampers & Co card swap. I was inspired by Beth Prout’s creation, which you can find on her blog here. This is my first attempt at making a vintage style card, and I really like it! I think the best part of this vintage card is it doesn’t have to be perfect – it can be messy and still look great!
I first stamped the flower bouquet image and ran it through my Big Shot with the Square Lattice embossing folder from the Summer Mini. Then, I sponged the edges and the entire whitespace all with Soft Suede ink. Next, I frayed the edges of my cardstock using the sharp edge of my scissors. The ribbon was easy to add to the card using a loop style, Sticky Strip, and some glue dots. Here’s a good tutorial for the ribbon here.
