Oh I had so much fun going through the inspiration challenge today looking at all the different vintage prints etc. Unfortunately I did not have any paper or images to match so I went with the color palette and floral print of this pitcher http://www.bluecarrotshop.com/detail...ID=104&CatID=3 and created a card with a sentiment instead.
I used the House Blessings and Our Daily Bread stamp set available at ODBD to create a card for my brother and sister in law who just bought a house. The dp is from Cosmo Cricket. I pleated and sewed the ribbon. The shape of the sentiment uses the Labels 10 nestabilities. The layout uses the Our Daily Bread Designs Shining the Light sketch for this week.
Thanks for looking!! Stef, you amaze me with the sites you find. It must take you a long time to find them.

Love those stitched lines between the silver gems. I'd say you'd captured something of the period feel of your inspiration piece, as well as the colour palette.

This may be the least embellished card you've ever made, Chris! Beautiful, none the less! I love the sheaves of wheat on the label 10 nestie!!
