Vintage Variety

What do you think when you hear, "vintage"?

I love vintage style -- maybe not so much in my clothes.  I'm more modern than that, but in cards?  Whoa!  That's another matter.
This card will make 'em say, "Wow!"
I used several stamp sets with Stamper's Club to have some fun with these vintage-style cards.
love how that tire looks almost whole
A lot of it has to do with the "aging" that you do around the edges using Soft Suede ink and a Stampin' Sponge.
An "echo" of swirls
  We used the Big Shot and Embossing Folders, along with some punches to add lots of style to this great card.  Everyone who sees this card takes it and right away has said, "Wow.  Cool card." And then they begin to feel it.  Love those kinds of reactions.
