The Flower Challenge #68 - Reminder

There is stilll time for you to enter your card in this month's challenge at The Flower Challenge using this prompt


I remembered an old, old stamp set I had from a now out of business company and combined it with one of my newest stamps to create a vintage post card.

The new are the blossoms from Waffle Flower that were masked and stamped in Morning Mist in the corner of the panel and colored with Victorian Rose and Bundled Sage DIs.  An older text stamp from PTI was added across the middle in Fog ink. Even older yet is the postage stamp die that was colored with the same ink as the flowers, with the 5 cent image and cancelling mark from the same set added.  A little aging with my brown brush around the edges was done before mounting to the dark gray border and then the card base. 

Have you made a card for the challenge yet?  It must have flowers as your focal point with a number included somewhere. For inspiration check out the cards the Design Team and our guest designer Kailash have made.
