A Blast from the Past

I found this cute digital image online - it's from a vintage colouring book, which I just may have owned myself a quarter of a century ago! Who else remembers Precious Moments!? Oops, did I just show my age!?

I decided to colour it in monochrome, so it can be entered into Make it Colourful's vintage photo challenge, I added silver elements to fit with The Shabby Tea Room's White with One challenge and I had planned on entering a Wedding Challenge, but the time difference confused me and I missed out!



This is the first shaped card I have made, and I followed the current Friday Sketchers sketch which was just begging to be made into a circle card. I included ribbons and pearls so am also entering it into Papertake Weekly's challenge.

This IS {precious}!!! I collected PM oh so many years ago -- even had a PM cake topper on my wedding cake and have a whole curio cabinet full of them in my dining room, so this design really speaks to my heart! Thanks for sharing with us this week in the Tea Room for our White plus one other challenge :)
