Congrats Nancy. You have a fabulous gallery. I went way back and found this vintage cutie. You are a talented designer who is very generous with your sweet and encouraging comments. Enjoy your reign.
F4A224: I stamped my image onto vellum with Stazon. I colored the back with Copics. I popped it up over another stamped image which is colored underneath. If the vellum is pushed in, the image is brighter. I didn't quite get the effect I was looking for, but I'll consider it a learning experience. The flower is distressed with TH distress antique linen.
Thanks for looking

Irene, that is a fantastic technique. I've never tried that - wow! It has a Currier and Ives well about it - what do you think? The white embossed frame almost looks like a soft quilted material (gorgeous stitching too). Another top notch card, Irene. Our Queen will be honored I'm sure.

Irene, I'm not sure how this could've turned out any better! The technique you used on the image is awesome; I could tell there was SOMETHING different about it other than just being a colored image. She looks amazing!

What a wonderful technique with the Vellum - it truly gives the perfect vintage feel for this image and card. Love the flower and peace charm too - nice touch!! Hugs
