Sale-A-Bration 2013 Countdown Week 2: Feeling Sentimental Card

While I had my things out making last weeks Morning Post card I though I would create another in the same way. Same, same but different lol.  The Feeling Sentimental stamp in all it's vintage loveliness does not need much embellishment so I have kept this card fairly simple - like me ;)

I spritzed the Naturals Ivory cardstock with a Chocolate Chip & Riding Hood Red Marker.  Then I stamped the lovely vintage penny farthing image from the Feeling Sentimental stamp set (available during Sale-A-Bration only) in Riding Hood Red.  I layered this onto Crumb Cake cardstock then some Fan Fair DSP that was sanded around the edges. All this was then mounted onto a Riding Hood Red card base.   I had a few left overs from the Morning Post card from last week so added those.  A Postage Stamp Punch & a Petite Curly Label punch from the Pretty Petites stamp set.

Sale-A-Bration 2013 Countdown: Week 1 - Petite Curly Label Vintage Card

This week I am focussing on the Petite Curly Label punch & the matching stamp set Pretty Petites from the Sale-A-Bration catalogue due to be released January 22nd, 2013.

I have challenged myself to use some stamp sets that are gathering dust on my shelf.  I loved the Morning Post stamp set in the annual catalogue straight away and had to have it.  But it has sat on my shelf for 5 months without ever being used.   :(

Today I wanted to show you how you can combine the Morning Post stamp set with the Pretty Petite set to get a vintage look.  I love the vintage look but don't often go there as my style is more clean & simple, but every now & then it is good to step out of your comfort zone and do something different.   I even dragged out my neglected spritzer too!
