Digi Choosday - Vintage

-
It's time for a new challenge over at Digi choosday.  This time our challenge for you is Vintage!

I don't do a lot of Vintage... so for my card I decided to do a duo of things that I don't do a lot of... which is manly cards and vintage/retro.  I decided to use the fabulous Work and play collection 2 with the office colored and the papers that go with it!

I mean isn't it obvious that we would all like a day off?!? So to me this little guy looked perfect for the 50s and wanting to have a little holiday so his little paper could be saying that it's a day off :)  How fabulous would that be?!?
I used my large and small deckled rectangles from Spellbinder.  I used some ribbon and a charm from my stash.

Here's a closer look at the precolored digi.  The sentiment is from Gingerhouse

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
  1. Love to create challenge - Love of ribbon
  2. Ooh-la-la-creations challenges - Bow
  3. Paper creators crafts - Use a charm
  4. Whoopsi daisy - Use 2 or more designer papers.
That's it for this post.  Not sure that I'll be able to do another post... we will see...

Hugs

    Having had a completely sleepless night, I'd love to follow the advice in the sentiment, Vicky. What a fun and fab card! Love all your neutrals. Makes the card look like a sepia vintage photo. :-D
