I'm hoping that despite the vintage look that this card is still considered Clean And Simple...
There are so many wonderfully original shaped cards already submitted but I wanted to try out m new stamp set from Technique Tuesday.
After die-cutting the front and back of the card, I embossed only the front. Leaving the die on, I stamped the gingham. Stamping over Spellbinders usually causes imperfect stamping so I made this work by inking the edges and fussy-cut typewriter with vintage colors: Antique Linen and Old Paper Tim Holtz Distress Ink.
I used the Antique Linen on the lace as well.
I used my Martha Stewart scoreboard to score the back die-cut and adhere it to the front.
Thanks for stopping by!
