Elegant Vintage Background

 The Fresh Vintage set is my absolute favorite!! For today's card I discovered how easy it is to make a lovely vintage background paper with the large floral image.

I stamped the image repeatedly using Concord Crush ink on Whisper White card stock. The shapely layered borders come from the Adorning Accents Edgelits. I also embossed the main panel, you may better see the detail if you click to enlarge the photo. Stamping the trio of flowers in Concord Crush ink with the small flower image, I then punched them out.

I combined Concord Crush with a Peach Parfait tag die cut with the Labels Collection. Pearls dress up this clean and simple card. I included a tag to play along with Jaydee's Clean and Simple challenge at The Paper Players. I had fun with this one!

Wow! I love this! I think that image you used on the shaped panel is my very favorite Stamp right now!! You can use it as a focal image, or make your own DSP. Great job!

Oh, and last iChat I was using this small flower stamp and couldn't find a punch that fits it! Which one did you use??

Love,
Susan

Hi Susan,
Great question about the punch for the small floral image stamped in Peach Parfait. Guess what? I didn't use one. :-> It just looks like it because the sentiment stamped over it gives the illusion of depth.
Thanks for asking!
