My card for a vintage swap, hosted by the fabulous Kadie (kmensley). I started with completely different ideas and materials, but this is what I finally came up with. I got to use some of the awesome buttons Michelle had sent me as blog candy many moons ago - the one on the flower, and mixed it with some self-adhesive buttons from a pack I picked up at Joann's. The ribbon is May Arts - the perfect vintage-y texture - has a slight rustle, but isn't at all stiff. The bird is from a line by Magenta - an EZ-mount single from their Crafty Individuals line. The DP is Basic Grey. I used Tim Holtz Distress Ink and SU Wonder Color Crayons for the main image, and Versacolor and Distress Ink on the paper flower.
TFL and hope you enjoy!
