Vintage Birthday Card Tutorial

I was inspired to create a card that looked like something I may have found in the attic of my great grandmother's house. In a box full of treasures stashed away in a corner covered in dust and cobwebs.

My eyes are closed and the vision is clear in my mind. I see old, distressed paper with writing on it. The old paper is adorned with an image of red flowers. I see butterflies. It's dirty and dingy but oh so gorgeous!

I reach quickly for the colors and images (stamp sets)  I see in my vision and turn on the video camera. The result is absolutely stunning! A vintage card that looks like it's been around for at least a century!

Now, gather your supplies, join me in my craft room, and be inspired to transform paper into a little work of art.
