Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes

Hey everyone! It's time for a new challenge from Papertake Weekly. It's the first Tuesday of the month, which means the challenge is Anything Goes and as the 10th is Mother's Day in the UK, the option this week is to make a Mother's Day card or a card for a special woman/girl. We are sponsored by the fabulous Lili of the Valley. For my card today, I used an adorable image from Peggy Loves Vintage and it's from the original Collection of Cuties cd. If you love Vintage images, you are in for a treat! Please also be sure and visit her blog and become a follower. Not only does Peggy love vintage, Peggy also loves to give away free images! If you follow her blog, you will be sure to see when she's posted a new fabulous freebie!  Sorry...I really had trouble with this pic. It's MUCH cuter in person.



 





I printed the image on Bazzill cardstock just cause I like the way the vintage images look on it. It's cut out with a circle Nestability and machine stitched. This was a very fast card to make. That's what I really love about Peggy Loves Vintage. It's easy to make an awesome card in just a few minutes! I added the bow, some Wild Orchid Crafts flowers, and a sentiment cut with the Silhouette Cameo. I also used one of the Punch Around the Page sets from Martha Stewart and used that as the outside frame of the card.  Please be sure to pop over to Papertake Weekly to check out all the gorgeous creations by the rest of the team, and then we'd really love it if you'd grab your paper and glue and play along with us. Thanks for stopping by to see me today, and hope you come back again soon! Hugs!
