As usual, there's prizes to be won for a random commenter on the DT blogs (it could be any blog!) and a random commenter on Claire's blog. The competition will end at 11:59 pm EASTERN on July 3rd. The winners will be announced on the WMS blog after that. So be sure to comment on every step along the way!
For the card, I actually used a little masking on the lace pattern from Victorian Fripperie. I placed two post-it notes down before I stamped. I love that I can mask the edges off to use my background set in a different fashion.
The sentiment and frame come from Fancy Phrases.
I had the crimper on my desk still from a thank you card I created awhile back so I figured I'd use it again before I placed it back in my bin of dusty tools again. Note to self: hold the crimper tighter next time... but the subtle effect isn't too bad.
Wrapped that, along with some patterned paper and twine around a pack of Altoids. The label comes from the new July set Rescue Remedies. It just fit nicely over the box and its just a lovely vintagey, old fashioned look.
Next up is the wonderfully talented Carly. I know you'll love what she has created!
