Jill (JD from PAUSA) is this week's Featured Stamper. I am a huge fan of Jill. Her gallery is full of warm and comforting cards. She also has a very talented husband who sometimes colors images for her (I have always been super jealous of this - my DH won't even try). I love her quilt looks, great card shapes, and vintage cards. Today I picked a vintage card as my inspiration:
I tried to find an old picture to use but only found this church from an old magazine. I thought it would be fun to put it on a piece of cork like it was put on a memo board as a reminder. I used some SU! ribbon instead of beads. No flowers but there is a kind of flower design on the brads.
On my picture and the lace, I added gesso to stick them and protect them. I added some gold paint to the brads and to the lace. So this also qualifies for the mix challenge since I embedded the lace with gesso and paint and I have ink, paint, and gesso as my mediums.
Congrats Jill and a million thanks for all the encouragement and inspiration you have given me and others! Hugz
So what happens with your gesso isn't dry and you stamp on it? Blurred words - but it still works and I love the church so I kept it.

This is terrific Nancy! I love your creativity using different items like old photos and anchoring the picture to the cork with brads. Lovely card and nice tribute to Jill as well!

How wonderful, Nancy! I love your photo of the old steeple church & the scripture is beautiful.
p.s. I'm grateful my hubs won't color for me..he keeps wanting to do weird things like heat up an entire jar of embossing powder, or upload strange things under the name "justwrongdesigns". I'd be banned for life!!
