GC 141 Granny's Photo Album

The Gingersnaps chestnut theme challenge this month is "Granny's Photo Album (do take a look at the DT and other participant entries they really are fab). I really love vintage style so couldn't resist making a tag for the challenge. I have coloured the tag with DI antique linen and worn lipstick it's given a nice pinkish faded tinge, the edges are rubbed with inka gold. I stamped with text and a CI flower swirl. I used a small piece of corrugated again rubbed with inka gold and the DIs and attached the cut out image. The circles are sprayed with cosmic shimmer copper (they are cut out of a colour catcher sheet) and the flowers mounted onto them. The lace is from my vintage collection and really gives the vintage feel.
Thanks for looking. Hugs Sandra XOXO

What a beautiful tag. Love the little girl with her wistful look and how you have set the photograph off with the lace and flowers. The background stamp you have used looks rather wantable (no such word but am sure you know what I mean).
Thanks for sharing. It's a beauty.
Hugs, Neet xx
