Video Tutorial - How to Distress Paper Edges to Add Interest

I am often asked how I achieve the “distressed” look to paper edges on my scrapbook layouts and cards… something I do quite a bit, especially on Vintage style things, (layouts and cards).
So I thought it would be a good idea to make a video for you, showing exactly how I crumple, fold and rip [...]

Another Vintage Style Birthday Card by SundayL

Here is the latest card I made using the free downloable/printable vintage style pictures from Heidi.
It’s a quick Birthday Card and was simply made using the card base, a piece of Laura Ashley paper (crumpled at the edges), a piece of lace ribbon tied in the middle with sheer ribbon and a little metal fancy [...]

Soft Vintage Style Thank You Card

I made this card as a Thank You Card for a lady that doesn’t really do lacy and fru-fru!  Tried to keep it simple with the image (lovely soft mood to the picture don’t you think?) doing most of the work.

I have found making cards “around” a photographic image much easier than creating something from [...]

Set of Red and Green Vintage Style Christmas Cards

As promised here is the set of four more traditional Christmas cards.  They are the usual red and green style.

Again I’ve used flocked paper from Laura Ashley (Dovecraft sell the range) ton the two outer cards, the background paper on the third from left is Basic Grey “Boxer” 6×6 pad, hence the need for a [...]

Set of Blue Vintage style Christmas Cards

Here is the set of three vintage style christmas cards I made just before Christmas. 

Click on the image for a larger version. 
I have used real lace on the left hand card and the middle card has stick on lace under the blue ribbon and the patterned paper is flocked (the grey bit) and is from [...]

Vintage Style Christmas Card 3

I just love this image, such a gentle one.  Again the paper is K&Co, from the 6×6 pack called “Classic” and the blue bit of matting under the photograph is from the 6×6 “Boxer” collection by Basic Grey. I’ve matted a couple of times using silver card, which actually made the card fairly heavy.. for a [...]

Vintage Style Christmas Card 2

The second of the cards I made at my crop last Saturday! I’ve used the same image as I did for a card a little while back which again, is free from  Shabby Chic Papirskatter.
K&Co background paper and I did actually use a stamp on this one… !  Another one in the next post

Vintage Style Christmas Card 1

Here is the first of some Christmas cards I have made this year… more coming up!  I tend to be a scrapbooking cardmaker, and therefore keep my cards fairly simple.  I have recently “got into” the vintage style!
The image was a free download from  Shabby Chic Papirskatter. K&Co background paper with a little bit of [...]

Vintage Style Card - Free Images

I made a card and a half at my crop today!  I thought I would make some vintage style cards with some pictures I have downloaded from the internet and here is the result of the card I actually finished.  This wasn’t because it took me a long time to make, but after the demo [...]
