Life Happens - Contest!

Life Happens. Yes, it does. Just wish it would slow down a bit. Know what I mean? Anyhoo. This card was totally inspired by not one, but two WOW projects we were shown at Regional. I changed it up a bit by using Kraft paper, different ink colors and adding the Medallion in the background. I really like this card. Not my usual style and that is why is appeals to me this week...............I need some simplicity right now. Beautiful, yet simple. I am aiming for the vintage look here. Thinking a scrapbook page would look good with this on it too. This card is one of the three projects for my monthly stamp club. Lucky girls.

Interested in earning the Vintage Vogue stamp set for FREE including step by step directions on how to make 5 projects???? Then book a workshop in the month of February and it is all yours! First to book a workshop with me, wins the stamp set.................. how cool is that?

Supplies for this card are:

Cardstock
* Very Vanilla 101650
* Kraft 102125 (my favorite!)
* Barely Banana 102701

Ink
* Crushed Curry 115659
* Dusty Durango 115654
* Always Artichoke 105219
* Soft Suede 115657

Stamp Set
* Vintage Vogue 117690 (Mini Catalog)
* Medallion 115223

Other
* Gold Brad 104337

To do the Medallion background, I lightly sponged Dusty Durange and Crushed Curry on to the stamp. Then pressed it directly to the Kraft cardstock.
