Vintage Baby card...

I received an invitation yesterday to a baby shower, so now I have been on a mission making a couple of baby cards so I can decide which one goes along with the baby gift! Just an excuse to make a couple of cards! I just love those old vintage cards so much. So a couple of weeks ago I came across this stamp set from Ellen Hutson's site, called Baby Dear from Cornish Heritage Farms.


Yesterday Paula posted this gorgeous card with some beautiful roses she had made on a beautifully done card. I was so happy when she posted the turtorial for it! So last night began my obsession with rose making. Small ones, medium and large! Here is Wendy's wonderful blog with a turtorial on roses!

Lovely card! I love the vintage look, very nice! I've never done anything vintage, it kind of scares me... I wouldn't know where to start, but I'd like to try it. Any tips? I don't have any supplies that would fit into that category. Aloha, J:)
