Good morning everyone, I hope all is well in your world...hugs
In case you are wondering about my title for this post, I see such beautiful vintage cards on other folks's blogs and I cannot seem to do them as well but HeyHO, you have to try don't you LOL.
I was lucky enough to be offered a digi image of my choice from Nicecrane Designs recently and I chose one, but when it dropped into my inbox there were actually 3 images. Thank you so much to Nicecrane, I hope you don't mind that I changed your beautiful images to sepia as I love old sepia photographs.
Here are the first two cards I made using them.
I folded and cut buff card from PDA to 7x5.
I printed both images onto Kodak everyday photo paper which is something in between glossy and matte. The first image was cut out using my new Die'sire dies and the second one with Nesties.
Other dies used are Marianne and Memory Box.
If I remember rightly the sentiment is from Stamps and Smiles :o)
