Okay...this card was fun to make! Just got my March Kit of the month from Unity Stamps the other day, and as usual, I had a favorite image I couldn't WAIT to stamp! This time around - this was my favorite!!! As a side note, look at that beautiful lace! That came from MY mama...I was out at her house after church on Sunday, and since she does a LOT of sewing and quilting, I asked her if she ever had scraps of "vintage - y" looking lace. She opened a dresser drawer full of lace and started handing stuff over to me!!! And the nifty yarn that is next to the lace is from my best friend who is a knitter, and passed some bits of yarn to me to use! I love how they both go together with this card so well! I am entering this in the Unity Stamps Monthly Challenge - Fashion Forward - this gal just looks so stylish and hip to me!!!
So both the image and sentiment are from Unity Stamps, and stamped the sentiment inside a small frame that was pre-printed on the paper set that I used on the card. I then used my Tim Holtz distress tool for the edges of the oval, and inked everything. Added the lace (thanks Mom!) and the yarn (thanks Hannah!) and finished with some buttons tied with a bit of floss.

Love that stamp, lace and buttons!
