This is my card entry for the Alphabet Challenge for the letter A (the A is for the StampinUp Awesomely Artistic Stamp Set I used) for Round 11. Sadly, I am several weeks behind with this entry. This card was inspired by this video I watched by Connie Stewart: . Doing vintage cards does not come naturally to me, but I love this style so I was excited to make this card when I found the video the other day. The stamping and sponging are all done with Tim Holtz Frayed Burlap ink and the flowers were colored with Momento markers which works perfectly with the vintage style of this card. I really enjoyed making this card and I am thrilled to finally have my A card made which means I am caught up now -whew! Thank you for looking today. ~Karen.

Karen, this is so pretty! I love the colors you used and soft stamping of your background. You could never tell that this style doesn't come easily to you as it looks beautiful and effortless. Good for you being all caught up! You are ahead of me!
