Today's Lesson from the Craft Room: Everything old is new again!
Today's challenge was to incorporate a recessed window into your card (what a fun challenge!)! This was my first recessed card and I love trying new things! It was also the perfect opportunity to incorporate something old. Today I scanned a bunch of vintage photos and this little guy really grabbed my heart
I printed the scanned photo onto whisper white card stock. I used the sanded stamp with tea dye ink to age the card base and used a buckle punch to make the front mimic a suitcase. The greeting was also printed on the computer.
So look around your house and see if you've got something old that you might make new again! You never know what might grab your heart
Hope you enjoy! Feel free to take a trip to my blog at www.myfigments.blogspot.com. I would love your suggestions & feedback!
