Honey I Shrunk the Kit'-Vintage Vessels'

Hello All

I am here today to share with you the cards I have made with my virtual crafting honey buddies:


Together we make up the 'honey girls'. We have a kit club together called 'Honey I shrunk the kit' You can see our logo below.

This time the lovely Hazel sent us a fabulous pack of goodies with the theme of:

'Vintage Vessels'

I am not a vintage girl as you will see but I am starting off with my attempt at 2 vintage cards then as we go along you will see the inner CAS Sandie slowly emerge using the same set of goodies!

Here we go-I have used the mason jar die and some gold vintage gems from Hazel's fab goodies:



I have to admit this card was inspired by this card I loved on pinterest and is very similar to it but with my take on vintage added. The sentiment is so old I can't remember where it is from. I was worried about adding all these sequins and thought it would take forever but Nonni gave me a special pencil she got when she went to Japan and using this with sequins makes it so easy. But I think you might need to travel to Japan to get one!

And card 2:



Gosh this card took me hours to make. I had an idea in my head but every time I tried it out...in the bin it ended. I played around for ages trying out different things. I really wanted to use these die cut jars that were in the pack plus this chevron DSP. Well in the end this is the card I made. I found these little flowers in my stash and coloured the petals to match the paper. I then found some gems to add to the jars...I now realise they are not straight but too late! Although not my normal card I actually think it is quite sweet and am sure I will use it at some point....thanks for pushing me here Hazel!

Card 3....see the inner Sandie is being released.....



This card was inspired by the little tea cups that Hazel sent us. I used the same design I used for this card but this time used the cups instead of leaves. I randomly stamped the tea cups and then used the die cut Hazel sent us coloured with promakers to match my die cut sentiment from STAMPlorations. For this card I followed the sketch at Sovushka Slavia


I will also enter this card into the STAMPlorations CAS challenge twist of purple


Finally the inner Sandie emerges and CAS is here again!!



I used this sweet little vase die cut from the pack adding my own little vintage gold pattern. Score lines ground the die holding stamped gold flowers. I added the sentiment on the leaft top to balance my card. All the gold is stamped with delicata ink so looks embossed IRL.

I will enter this card into Addicted to Stamps and More-CAS
