Happy Birthday

Good morning to you all

Today I am inspiring you with those gorgeous products from


using some of the gorgeous Vintage Butterflies ribbon, called

Vintage Butterflies Ribbon - Bikes Latte

I was going for a transport theme for this friends birthday card and this worked well I thought

so here is my card


I also used some of the spotty buttons in Lemon

The image is a new one for me, 

although if you know of an image like this with a tractor on it, please do let me know as I need one urgently

So the base layer is brown card stock and the top layer is some mucky cream/brown scripted paper, not sure where from to be honest, sorry.  I wrapped the ribbon around and then tied a knot on a piece and added this.
The image is just plain card, stamped in versafine brown, distressed with antique linen and then wet with a baby wipe before the edges were distressed and rolled and left to dry.  Once dry I then distressed with frayed burlap and stamped the sentiment before adding to my card. 

I finished off with the buttons and charms and love how it turned out.

thank you so much to all of my lovely visitors and I will be hopping to see you soon

happy crafting
Kate

    A gorgeous card Kate, fabulous vintage design.
    Crafter's Companion has a Sheena stamp - http://www.crafterscompanion.co.uk/papercraft-c2141/stamps-c15/sheena-douglass-c914/as-scene-on-screen-c1739/sheena-douglass-perfect-partners-a5-rubber-stamp-set-the-country-life-stamp-p26492 - its very vintage but take a look.

    Hi Kate your card is fabulous, love the colour pallet and the image.
    I seem to think that Sheena Douglass, might have a scenic stamp.
    with a tractor, but it's a while ago. Good luck with finding one, hugs Kate x
