Crafts and Me Stamps Challenge: Vintage

The Dynamite Digi design team over at the Crafts and Me Stamps' challenge blog wants to see your Vintage-themed projects.  Crafts and Me Stamps is sponsoring this challenge and offering THREE digital images to a randomly selected entry. You can find out more about this challenge here.

I've used newly released steampunk Mimi by Hannah Lynn on a twisted easel card.  You can find this lovely digital image here.  Here's a closer view of my Copic-filled image.

 

Layers of Bo Bunny's Timepiece collection patterned paper, matted with Bazzill rust and brown, support my steampunk theme.  After adhering Bazzill cardstock to chipboard, I used a Sizzix Tim Holtz Alterations On The Edge Steampunk die to create a gear border.  Wyla polyester pleated off-white lace lies behind my border.  I've also framed my image with the same lace.

A Close To My Heart Say It In Style "thinking of you" stamp lies on a Lifestyle Crafts cutting die from their Genius magnetic ultimate platform system set.  Home Pro copper metal corners adorn the top left and bottom right of my card.  Assorted Jolee's Boutique metallic steampunk stickers are scattered throughout.

Here's a view of the front of my card showing how I've used Mimi to convey a vintage theme . . .

 

 

I do enjoy making handmade flowers using punches.  If I have flowers remaining after my projects are complete, I store them for use at another time.  Here you'll see a few chrysanthemums made from Punch Bunch daisies and oak leaves, a five-petal plum flower with a small cosmos as its stamen, a larger marigold and several pine branch leaf fillers.  Most are lightly painted with Diamond Stickles for beautiful shimmer.

 

The base of the card includes a layered Memory Box and Martha Stewart butterfly.
