Vintage for New year





Today I am lucky enough to have 4 items of my work showcased  by the lovely Tina on her post at Craftwork Cards. To see the other two items go here
Tina does a regular spot called " Focus on you" which showcases cards and projects made using Craftwork Cards materials. If you would like the chance to have your CC cards and/or projects showcased, send them to Tina at  sparklygirltina@gmail.com

My two cards above were made using the  Bohemian Paper pad, which includes flowers and gorgeous papers. I inked and distressed the papers to give a vintage look. I also inked round the petals of the flowers. I added some lace, pearls and vintage pictures to finish them.
I have entered the first ( top ) card into the challenges listed below
