Golden Oldies


I haven't participated in many of the card challenges lately because I haven't fancied the themes. Daring Cardmakers caught my eye with their challenge "Golden Oldies."

They write: "With so many new things /latest papers/ trendy stuff constantly coming on the market, we thought it would be nice to have a look back, and dig out some of our 'old' papers and embellishments and make a card with our 'preloved' treasures".

Absolutely true, so I dug out one of my old favourites, Flavia Pomegranites by Colorbok. This was an amazingly good value buy from Craft Obsessions (it was in the sale about a year ago) and there's still lots left.

I can't remember who the stamp is by, although she is called Sophia and I stamped her with a Stampin' Up pink inkpad and highlighted her in Stickles magenta (another old fave).
