Vintage Challenge

I found a fun new place to get digital images.  You can find the blog and challenge here.  The theme for this month's challenge is vintage.  I really do love the vintage feel but have a hard time creating something in that theme sometimes.  I used a white cardstock base and the patterned paper is from Prima Engraver paper pack.  I chose to use 2 different patterns.   I added the two patterned papers on top of each other and then fussy cut an image to place in the lower right hand corner of my card.  I cut out a tree trunk from some of the brown Prima paper and used a piece of green cardstock to make a tree top.  I inked around the tree top with my ColorBox chalk ink.  I colored up the adorable owl image from Seemacrafts and added it to the tree.  I cut out a banner from a Sizzix die and stamped a sentiment from a Stamps of Life stamp set.  Thanks for looking and I hope you come over and join us in this fun challenge. 

DT post for Little Blue Button Stamp

Hello ladies it is Marla H. (craftymarla.blogspot.com) and Marla H. on YouTube here for my DT day.  I chose to use Watering plants Ivy for my first card.  This is an adorable summer time image and so fun to color.    I chose a white 5 X 7 cardstock base.  I then added a piece of Pink Paislee pattern paper from the Spring Jubilee line that I got in a RAK to the base of the card.  I then adhered a Webster's Pages journaling card to the top left hand corner of the patterned paper.  I used my Grassy Edges My Favorite Things die to cut out some green cardstock and adhere to the bottom of the card.  I cut out the Greeting Farm fence die with some dark brown cardstock and added it in between the two layers of grass die cuts.  I colored the adorable Ivy with my markers, the list will be below the photo. I added waterfall stickles to the water drops.  I also added Spiced Marmalade stickles to her hair bow and flower on her hat. I used a technique on her hat to give it added texture that I learned from Amadoreros on YouTube.  It is to use some Copic blender refill or alcohol blending solution on a piece of paper towel and just dab it on the colored hat.  I really like the way it gives it more of a straw like texture.   I then added 3 small flowers that I purchased online in the bottom right hand corner of the card.  TFS

I used a white 5 X 7 card stock base.  I added a piece of patterned paper from My Minds Eye dwell to the card front.  I then cut out a banner of another piece of paper from the same collection and adhered it to the bottom of the card. I then glued on a Prima Lyric wood button to the banner.  I glued a Webster's page journaling spot card to the right hand side of the card with another journaling spot from Echo Park tucked in behind that.  I die cut the Well Worn Greetings My Favorite Thing die from another piece of the My Minds Eye "Dwell" patterned paper.  I took the Love Sentiments2 from Little Blue Button Stamps and die cut the sentiment with another one of the Well Worn Greetings die from My Favorite Things.  I inked the edges of the sentiment with peeled paint distress ink and glued to the other label die.  I colored up the adorable jar of hearts image with my markers.  The colors will be listed below the photo and then I added some frosted lace stickles to her belt and hair bow.  I added peeled paint distress stickles to the heart in her hair.  I then added some glossy accents to the jar to make it look more realistic.  Thanks for looking
