I got out out all my animal stamps and actually stamped a few but nothing gelled.Then I found a topper I made last year but didn't do anything with and I had a eureka moment.The background was a dirty pour run off and I had put a decouped teddy image on the side-sooo made a little tag -crumpled a postcard from Graphic 45 plus the little stamp and May strip to ground the bear.
String on the tag-distressed all edges and used my long forgotten gilding polish -luckily not dried out-some sparkle on the pinafore and I made a 4" square Fat Page everything onto a base of greyboard-may even make this into card if suitable occasion.

LOVE the sparkle....I have a feeling for lots of it lately. Beautiful vintage looking card which is something that I have been drawn to also the last few weeks. So I find your card gorgeous and makes me smile. Have a great day and be safe.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful vintage card with a beautiful bear and papers
ReplyDeleteI love hearing how some projects come together, this is gorgeous and has such a vintage feel to it. I often sit at my desk looking at what I have around me with no inspiration at all but once the first piece has been started then the creative juices start to flow and it all comes together in the end.
