Sweet Vintage Cards

By Krissy Clark McKee


I was really inspired by the wonderful cards recently made by Nicole using Pink Paislee papers, and I decided to try my hand making my own cards using the sweet, almost old-fashioned looking papers from October Afternoon's 5 & Dime Collection.

The papers are perfect for adding stitching and border punched edges. And the cards from the Miscellany Kit or the Sticker Page make the cutest, best embellishments. I can't wait to send these cards to my friends!

Here are the other two cards I thoroughly enjoyed making:
