Aged To Perfection!



 I love the way this card turned out.  The DP paper is very old.  So old I no longer have the wrapper and I do not remember where I got it.  I still have most of it too.  It was perfect for this challenge.  And the stamp set I used, "Aged To Perfection" is from Fiskars and a new purchase for me a couple months ago.  Funny, I'm a wine drinker, but up til a couple months ago, I had no wine stamps! Go figure.

Anyway, I got all of the stamp almost together and decided the cream cardstock the stamps were on needed a little umpf so I embossed it and then lightly sanded some of it to give it a more "aged" look.  LOL  I have no idea why that is funny.  It's late. I'm punchy.  Or as I said in my younger years, I  have the "stupids".  LOL  Oh dear let me get off here and go to bed!



So I had hoped to enter this into the Drunken Stampers challenge, but missed the deadline.  Such is life.  Yet, I used the sketch at Freshly Made also, so not all is lost.
