Vintage With A Heart

I was really pleased to be one of the five winners of Crafty Individuals May challenge. It must have been so difficult to choose, as all the entries were stunning and so varied.

The theme for their June challenge is 'Vintage With A Heart'

 I decided to decorate a wooden curio house. I painted the entire house a vintage pink with matt emulsion and once dry I stamped on a pink/burgandy paint using CI - 213 to simulate a crackle effect. I outlined the house with a gold krylon pen.

The banner was painted with both the pink and burgandy paint and embossed using CI - 258 with gold embossing powder.

I used CI - 174 to make the mini pictures with the tando frames also available from Crafty Individuals.

The heart stamp is from magenta and unfortunately its not clear in the picture but it has a crackle glaze. I used a script stamp for the paper and I made a posy from a small crochet doily and some rose blooms. 

The bottom right stamped image is CI - 139 which I chose as my winning stamp! The oval picture next to it is an image from Dezinaworld which I backed onto a small lacey oval spellbinder die which I coloured gold.

That's all for the moment as my back is playing up from prolonged sitting crafting. LOL!

Happy Crafting.
