Nostalgic colours

The letter for this fortnight's dictionary challenge at the Craft Barn is N and I thought how perfect it was to try out my Shabby Chic stamps (Andy Skinner for Stampendous).

As a departure from my usually blank canvas, I chose to create this page with a piece of Prima paper in Vintage colours, providing the Coffee and Cream hues effortlessly!


I stamped and masked my images and created a shadow with Distress ink and Cut & Dry foam.
 
As usual dictionary definition and letter (today stamped in black ink) to finish the page.
 
One of the more easy ones... Wonder if the next one will be a twister?

    I like everything about this entry, but I am especially intrigued by the texture you managed to create on the bird and flowers. Everything fit so beautifully with the nostalgic feel of the page.

    A lovely page. The shadows are really effective and really give the illusion of layering xx
