Hello, friends!  With time being in short supply this time of year, I want to give to you a couple of quick and easy cards that you can whip right up!  I know I sometimes forget I need a card for a teacher, friend or neighbor and make something last minute!

Enjoy your holiday and don’t forget that the Vintage Street Market goodies are perfect for wrapping those packages!… Read the rest

It’s black Friday!

Hello, friends!  For those of you that live in the US — have you already been out shopping or is it a tradition you skip?  Either way, I’ve got a couple of cards appropriate for many occasions.

The name of the game is simple.  The pink bingo craft card coordinates with the stripes in the patterned paper making a matching, yet different color combination.  This and a simple stamp a message is conveyed without too much fuss!

Again, simple is the name of the game.  I wanted to highlight the vintage music paper peeking out and the lovely Crate paper.  A touch of May Arts ribbon highlights the whole thing!

I hope you have a great weekend and enjoy getting ready for the holiday season that is upon us!

Vintage Fun!

Hello fellow vintage fans!  Is there a chill in the air where you are?  Crunching leaves and pops of autumnal color?  If you answered yes you’re experiencing fall — the season some might argue is the best of them all!

I have a couple of cards to share with you — one that I made with Party Games and fun May Arts ribbon.  The second is a play on the popular mustache trend and Halloween!

Enjoy all things fall and Halloween if you dare — and check out all the festivity in the Vintage Street Market store!

In the spirit!

Happy fall, y’all!  Now that it’s here I’m finding myself digging out totes of decorations and making festive items.

The focus of this card is on the Vintage Street Market items, like my favorite Bingo Craft Cards and the patterned paper from the Family Fun paper kit! But the Making Memories alphabet stickers really give the card and interesting element!

Now, this one is mostly vintage fusion, using some of the Making Memories and Graphic 45 available in the store.  However, I did use some of the Soot Tinted Tape to make a circle accent — LOVE IT!

Hope your fall is cool, crisp and colorful!

Masculine cards

Leave a comment

Hello there!  Summer is wrapping up and it has me excited for fall and all things crisp and festive.  I’m looking forward to Halloween and Halloween crafts!  But, until then, I will keep making less themed items, including birthday cards like these!

This card includes some fun, new to the shop, vintage fusion items from Crate Paper.  However, it also includes some authentic vintage items from the shop, as well!  Love how easy it is to mix these old and new pieces to make a great card.

It’s also easy to create a fun and masculine card using the Vintage Street Market goodies — look how well the punch outs, patterned papers and bingo craft cards go together!

I know I will keep creating fun, festive things until the calendar switches over to fall — show me what you’re making until then, too!… Read the rest
