Vintage Vagabond






I'm playing along with the Tuesday Trigger challenge on the Moxie Fab World blog and also used the layout for SCS' Sketch Challenge. I pulled geometric elements from the trigger photo (diamonds in DP and retro square border) and added the metallic touches by swiping my Versamark pad along the edges of the butterfly and embossing with gold EP.  The sentiment also echoes a vintage feel - with sponging using Antique Linen distress ink. 




STAMPS: Rescue Remedies (Waltzingmouse Stamps)
PAPER: Graphic 45 French Country collection
INK: Versafine Onyx Black, Versamark
ACCESSORIES: Ranger Queen's Gold EP, Butterfly die by Cheery Lynn Designs, Retro square Die-namics border by MFT, Corner chomper, Labels Four Nestabilities, Black rhinestones.
