I had a really productive day yesterday, as my partner took our son for most of the day.
This is the first time I've used this Paper Artsy stamp that I bought, at 'sale' price , just before Christmas.
I made the background using a mix of blue inks and spraying with water. The number border is by Hampton Art. I added some twine - I agonised for a while over whether I should grunge it up but decided I wanted to keep a 'clean' look to the card. After all, even vintage things were clean when they were new!

I like the idea of Vintage being clean and this card I love. the blues are fab and the border really is the perfect match for the image x
So pleased you kept it clean looks so modern even though it's a vintage image :)
Thank you for sharing with us at Artful Times

FAB project as Von says it is modern despite the vintage feel to the image - great work
Happy 2014
