It's challenge time at A Vintage Journey and our lovely hostess, Nikki, has asked us to use neutrals. I first think of browns, yellows and manilas for this challenge and I have used lots of different shades of these colors for this card front. I am beginning to make plans for a family celebration in February when we will have guests from around the country to celebrate my wonderful parents 75th anniversary. When people ask my mom how long she has been married - her reply is "all my life".
I had some packaging in my stash that I used for the background, it was the perfect color. I also used some Tim Holtz Paper Dolls along with the Picture Wheel die. I had fun adding the faces to the wheel with their heads coming through the frame. I cut out the word FAMILY using my new Scan N Cut and added some darker ink. This is a fun and fast way to make a card that I'll use for the Thank You after the event.
Stay crafty my friends,
