Vintage Bouquet

Hello and Happy Sunday, Everyone!

I had every intention of working on home projects today, but with a headache and the knowledge that the school year starts this week ( hmmm, are the two related?), I have decided to have some fun instead.  That meant stamping, and with my parents anniversary coming up this week as well, I set about making their anniversary card.


I finally got around to using a new to me Altenew set; I was inspired by the flowers and colors in the new photo at Curtain Call~


I also was inspired by the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches.  I did initally have a small banner on the card, but it ended up morphing into a black strip of cardstock.


I am also linking up to Less is More-'Congratulations', as this is a congratulations on my parents being married 62 years!
I am also joining in on a new to me challenge, Friday Mashup-  'Summer Flowers',
As well as AAA Cards- 'Masking'- my flowers were masked to give the perception of layers.  

I finished off the card with some gold thread, a W Plus 9 sentiment and die, as well as some pearls, which I think add to the vintage look.

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a blessed week!

Lee Ann  :)
