This weeks challenge at Three Muses is Vintage but I struggled with any real clear concept of what I wanted to do. After some playing around this is what I eventually came up with.

The background is white Neenah card stock, with an open flower design stamped and embossed in white detail embossing powder. I put some Vintage photo and Broken china distress ink on my craft mat and then spritzed it with pearlex powder mixed with water. Then I dragged the paper through the various inks. Drying the paper between each dipping.
Next I inked up some Claudine Hellmuth sticky back canvas with Antique Linen distress stain and left that to dry while I stamped an coloured the Vintage lady. Once everything was dry I assembled as you see here and to finish I stamped the word Vintage at the top and a definition of Vintage at the right hand side.
Unfortunately you can't see the fabulous shimmer coming from the pearlex powder in this shot. In real life it sparkles with silver.
