VINTAGE LADY CARD WITH SCROLLED FRAME

VICTORIAN LADY

This is the same die set I used for the Art Deco Lady cards a couple of weeks back.
Its called "Scrolled Tomentosa" and comes from Couture Creations.

Die cutting and embossing have made quite complicated cards easy to achieve in very little time.

Having decided on a neutral colour scheme I just cut the frame out in three colours (I can use the other bits to make additional frames), and reassembled it with a Victorian woman image from scrapbooking paper inside the frame.

The base card is a small ivory textured square from Regal Craft Cards, and the backing paper is embossed in a folder.  A bit of brown ink around the edges, three flowers with tiny pearls in the middle on the bottom left, and three little pearls in a row on the top right and the card is finished.

Victoriana/Vintage is not as popular a style as it once was, but it is sure to be around in one form or other for a good while yet.
