Just Add Ink #14 - Just Add Vintage!

Have you checked out this week's challenge at Just Add Ink yet?  It's Just Add Vintage and the Design Team projects are gorgeous.  I love vintage style cards and pages, but it's definitely not my forte!  I wish it was.  Come to think of it, I don't know if I even have a particular style...



As you can see, I'm just not brilliant with vintage!  It's too... straight.  lol


A few close-ups anyway...


I do still love my page though - it has my daughter Olivia on it!  She's turning 3 on Sunday... eeek!


Materials:
Stamps - Very Vintage Wheel, Echoes of Kindness
Card stock - Chocolate Chip, Naturals Ivory
Inks - Chocolate Chip
Accessories - Chocolate Chip ribbon, Twill tape, Pretties Kit, Pastels (with a brush), sponge, dimensionals

  5. Danielle, this so lovely. I do have a question...is vintage the same as shabby chic? I don't know!!!!
    Have a lovely weekend.
    Cheers Donna Zammit

  6. I think your page is just absolutely wonderful! My granddaughter is 3 1/2, and I'm looking for a stylish but classic look to display some of my favorite photos of her, and I you have certainly inspired me. TFS

  9. For professing to not do vintage very well, it looks fabulous to me! LOVE the bow and the pin -- I was just looking at my pretties kit today and shaking my head at the compartment of untouched pins. :) The photo, though, it what makes it so heart-grabbing. VERY nice job!

  10. I love the page you created it is just so soft and has a sense of innocense to it. I would also like to say that I have nominated you for the Sunshine Award on my blog today. Thanks for always brightening my day with your lovely comments and the beautiful things you make.
