Vintage Christmas card for the Colour Combo Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Colour Combo Blog Hop where I have used the Vintage Christmas stamp set to make a masculine vintage bottle birthday card using the colours we were given

 

To recreate the vintage bottle card, you will need:

Starry Sky card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Pumpkin Pie card – 4½” by 3⅛”
Basic White card – 4¾” by 3¼”
Basic White card – 5½” by 1”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White card

 

I die cut a deckled rectangle from the 4¾” by 3¼” panel of Basic White card using the Deckled Rectangle Dies.

I stamped both the large and small bottles onto Post It Notes and cut them out to act as masks.

 

The smaller squat bottle was stamped onto the Deckled Rectangle in Pumpkin Pie ink. I placed a mask over the top and stamped the larger bottle in Starry Sky and Old Olive, one each side of the squat bottle.

 

I repeated the stamping and masking until my row of bottles was complete. I then used a Blending Brush to apply Starry Sky ink around the edges of the deckled rectangle. The whole piece was then glued to the Pumpkin Pie layer.

 

Using sharp Scissors, I flagged both ends of the strip of Basic White card and added the strip to the centre of the Starry Sky card base. The stamped panel was then mounted over the top on Dimensionals.

 

The sentiment, from the Sending Smiles stamp set was stamped in Mossy Meadow ink on to scrap Basic White card. It was trimmed out using scissors and added to the card front. A trio of Champagne Rhinestones complete the card.

 

This is not a colour combo I would have chosen but I really like the card.

Please hop along to see what projects my fellow crafters have put together for your inspiration.
