Anya Ink #8 - Vintage look

Good morning good morning. Hahaha yep having a great weekend. Hope you are all well.

This week is Challenge #8 @ Anya Ink. Gosh this past eight weeks have flown. It has been amazing seeing everyone's work - truly inspiring. The theme this week is 'Vintage Look'. Now when Marcia asked me to give her a list of possible challenges before the challenge blog began this was one that I suggested. At the time I had a totally different stamp and papers in mind but when I bought this paper and then got the Xmas Sweeties I thought this would be perfect. I stamped Anya in Vintage Sepia ink on Very Vanilla card and coloured her. When you colour on VV card it comes out as a slightly different colour than on white card so that is why I did it. I did have to be careful with this as the Vintage Sepia ink is waterproof not copic proof so it did bleed the first time I did it. LOL.

The roses I received on Monday from I am Roses. I wanted to give them a shout out as I only ordered these on Wednesday 11th Nov. and they arrived 3 days later from Thailand so was very impressed. They also have Gardenias (slightly different to what you have seen before but I love them). I am going to be swimming in flowers. LOL.

Thanks for stopping by. Have a good one.

products: TGF stamp; Kaisercraft DP; Grant Archival background stamp (music notes); I am Roses roses; Prima flowers; Vintage Sepia ink; Very Vanilla card; natural twine.
