Vintage Look Bird And Roses Collage and IO Labor Day SALE

Greetings my lovelies!  Welcome to Monday on my blog.
Before moving on to my card today, I wanted to share some exciting news....

Now, on to my card.  Today I'm feeling a little nostalgic, hence the vintage feel to my card.  All of my stamps feature Impression-Obsession stamps
Bird Collage 4 E13046
Cover A Card Music CC029 
Peony Set WP835 

I started with a cream card stock panel, and created the background.  I brushed on tattered rose, victorian velvet, and vintage photo distress inks, then stamped portions of  the Cover A Card Music stamp intermittently in second generation stamping.




I stamped the Bird Collage and pieces of the Peony Set onto another piece of the same cream card stock, and gold embossed them.  I used my sponge daubers to add distress inks to the images, then fussy-cut them, and added them to the background panel I had created.
 I dyed some white seam binding by putting distress inks on my craft mat, and added some spritzes of water, then smooshed the ribbon into the wet ink puddles.  I dried it with my heat tool, then added it to the card front, ruching it as I applied it, then added a bow.  

A few Studio Katia gold foil pearls finish off the card.

I hope you are inspired by my card to create something beautiful.
