I won some images from Sweet Pea stamps, and I fell in love with this image from Conie Fong. The girl seemed perfect for a vintage style card.
The girl is colored with pencils, with Distress ink around the edges of the circle. The doily under that isn't distressed; it's really old. I found it when cleaning out my parents' condo. They had loads of stuff from who knows when, including a couple old paper doilies that had turned yellow with age.
The layout is the current Sweet Sketch Wednesday. For the background panel, I stamped script in Antique Linen ink.
The little "bow" is a snip of crocheted lace tied with ribbon.
