I had an opportunity to use 3 different things on this card sent by my punchie pals. The dp is from Nancy (nwilliams6), the 3-D Image Sticker is from Carol (gingerbeary and the house/tree border punches used were from my nemesis Brenda (Benzi). Thanks so much as you made this card come together.
I just basically sponged a nestie for the image panel, popped it up on dimensionals, added ribbon, snowflake, glitter brads, row of pearls and an array of MS glittered branch punches at the bottom of the image. Sounds simple, but it took me a long time. Every time I got that row of pearls straight, they went crooked again - I think they might be a little in this photo - I shall try again.
I tried to make this somewhat vintage b/t the image and the dp Nancy sent me, but I don't think I really achieved it, but I did try!
Thanks for taking a look!
PT: 8 branch punches, 1 nestie and Benzi'z border punch, although I didn't punch it!

Well, I think this looks positively vintage - Well done! Even better that you were able to use the great items that your friends sent you and make them all work so well together.
