Another Monday which means another Elizabeth Mae card for me to share with you! This week I turned to vintage for a shabby chic approach to creating. The challenge is to use only 2 colors!
That was hard for me. I know there is an extra little splash of green but the flower looked silly without a little leaf tucked in. Neutrals don't count thankfully! ;-)
I pulled out a scrap of doily and was wondering how I could incorporate it into this design. Truthfully, it was sitting on my desk and I was too lazy to put it way. So it's been sitting here a bit begging for a home. I did some fussy cutting on the banner and border which was easier than I expected. In fact, once I did that I decided the image needed to be cut out as well. I layered the card with my last bit of Creative Imaginations paper. I am freaking because the Copics I used to color this image match that paper nicely and I am out! I have to go on a search to find it. The scallop was sent to me by a friend. The ribbon also. I have some awesome friends. :-) Well, I just remembered the flower too was sent to me! I added a Making Memories paper flower under the beaded flower by cutting it down a bit. The stamp is from CTMH. I think pulled my dark ink Stickles out to add a few dabs of sparkle.

Such a cute, cute card, Amy! I love the feminine colors and the sweet dress form. The fancy cut banner behind is fabulous, and I love the snippet of doily that you used. I tend to leave things lying around my desk, too........and eventually they end up on something. :)
