Vintage Birthday Wishes

Despite making a variety of styles for my cards, I still love a good shabby chic, vintage vibe best.  I made a pair of birthday cards that are full of coffee-stained, distressed goodness.  

Papertrey Ink Meadow Greens sentiment; Prima paper flowers; gold glitter tape; twine


The tags were in a Stampin' Up! scrap bag, nicely dyed already for me (😀); all I had to do was dress them up and place them on a beautiful piece of DCWV patterned paper, which looks like old wallpaper to me.

I added stamped sentiments on the tags, a snippet of gold glitter tape, Prima flowers, and some twine.  These are simple in design, but oh the tags sat for a long time before I figured out how best to use them.

Thanks for popping in!

They're so beautiful! This was my style of choice at one time, too, and I still love it. You do it with such grace.
