Vintage Love

This week our latest challenge at Crafty Cardmakers, hosted by Kylie, has the theme of 'Vintage Love'.  As Valentine's Day is fast approaching we would like to see your creations incorporating a Vintage Love theme. Your project MUST be VINTAGE and SHOW at least one object that portrays love. Perhaps a picnic basket, gold locket, love letter, hearts etc. This challenge has 2 fab sponsors DI'S DIGI DOWNLOADS and HOBBY ART

I decided these lovely vintage looking bears would be perfect for a vintage look and nothing reminds me of love like flowers so I have made them with flower soft.  The die cuts are marianne design dies.

A Happy Birthday Crad

My card for today.  I have been using my new Marianne Design anja squares dies as they are fantastic.  The sentiment is a LOTV and the circle from Nellie snellen dies is the perfect size to cut it out.  The flourish is a Cheery Lynn one and I coloured the leaves with my promarker and used distress ink for the branch.  Tilda is coloured with my promarkers.
