Our theme at DIGISTAMPS 4 JOY this week is
"Happy Anniversary, June Bride of Yesteryear"
and the challenge is to make a Happy Anniversary Card.
This is my inspiration for you - a kraft tag in a vintage themed card:
I printed the image onto kraft cardstock and coloured using alcohol markers and a white gel pen for the highlighting.
The image I used is called "Fleur de Lis" available in the digistamps4joy.co.za store HERE
The fabulous green DP with the vintage prints is from Fabscraps, an awesome South African Company that has a wonderful range of goodies for the papercrafter! Their papers are to die for - certainly my favourite South Africa paper supplier! I LOVE using their products!
I made a pictorial explanation of how I put my card together :
and show you some detail pics of it:
