Paper Players Challenge #34

Do you ever buy a stamp set that you just HAVE to have, and then never do anything with it! I am famous for that...hmmm...maybe I have too many toys ~ oh, what am I saying, of course I could never have too many toys! Well, I just love this stamp set and it was so much fun playing with it today! And here's another shabby vintage card! I love playing with that style and the colors from the Paper Players challenge #34 were perfect for this set, I knew right away that I would be pulling out 'Have A Seat' from my stamp shelf! My stamps sets are all in alphabetical order on my shelves and then stamped in a catalogue, this way when my friends come over to play, they can easily find what they're looking for! 


If these colors don't scream vintage...I don't know what does!
So here's my card ~


~ here's a little side shot ~



 And here's the inside of the card. I created my little rosette's with a quilling tool, added some two way glue and then added some Dazzling Diamonds ~ I added way more dazzle than I wanted ~ too much dazzle for me, I was hoping for a more subtle look on my rosette's!


Well I hope you enjoyed your little visit with me ~ thanks so much for stopping by ~
I hope you enjoy your day!

    Darn, I just HAD to have that set, which I love, and haven't hardly used it. What a great sentiment to go with it..and I love the roses!!! I need to get a quilling tool, it makes it so much easier! GREAT card for the challenge colors!

    Haha, funny you should mention that, I buy sets I don't use all the time!! I seem to turn to the same favorites over & over. Love your use of the colors, and the shabby chic style of your card! Thanks for playing along with The Paper Players this week :)

    Wonderful vintage card, Denise. I love it. I have this set but it has never seen ink. Maybe I should do something about that. Thanks for the inspiration!

    Your rosettes are fabulous! I should pull out my quilling tools and make them at home with my stamping tools. Thanks for the reminder. Love your card!

    Hi Denise - what a fabulous job with the quilling. LOVE IT! I also love the rest of your vintage card, too. The frayed ribbon holding the tag is perfect. All round, fabulous vintage card. Gorgeous.
    So glad you joined the Paper Players this week

    Beautiful card Denise. That "seat" looks so inviting just to slow down, sit and visit a while. These colours are great together. I like the way you did the sentiment - fun button accent. Your rosettes are so pretty - I'd love to learn how to do them sometime too.

Did you see this new Embossing Folder?  It's from the new Adoring Hearts Bundle and wow!!! what a Bundle this is, we have the Stamp Set, Embossing Hybrid Folder, and the Dies, that work with the Embossing Folder.  So whenever you have an Embossing Folder, that is Hybrid, well, that means you Die Cut and Emboss at the same time...Easy Peasy and AMAZING!!! So what I did was, with my Blackberry Bliss Stamp Pad, I inked Brayered the inside of the Embossing Folder, then carefully laid the Die into the Embossing Folder, placed a 6" x 6" piece of Basic White CS, into the folder!  Ran that through my Cut & Emboss Machine and voilà Stampin Dimensionals behind these sweet ...
