Greetings! There's a "Free For All: Rock Your Sytle" blog hop going on over at 365 Cards! Each Design Team Member was asked to create a card in a style that we enjoy, with a caveat, we are to work with a package of goodies that our leader, Pam, sent to us. Now for me, my favorite style is retro/vintage. I LOVE the days gone by. One of my all time favorite designers that I began following soon after starting to blog is Lynne Montcrieff of Adorn. I am so drawn to her pieces. They are always vintage, done with great restraint and I love how she uses just littlest bit of fabric and/or lace or fibers to create her card. She make her own dyes, recycles shower curtains, and much more. She inspires me! For my card above, I created a card that reminded me of one of the cards that Lynne created for a recent Take Ten Publication. I layered orange fabric to a card base, tucked a scrap of a vellum bag by Fancy Pants behind it, stamped a great retro pickup truck by Paper Artsy onto scrap card stock, added faux stitching and added it to the card front. A bit of washi tape by My Mind's Eye, a sprocket by Idea-olgy, and a baker's twine bow by American Crafts were added next. A bit of vintage style fabric was added next along with several words by Artistic Outpost. I had a lot of fun and hope you will pop on over to see what the rest of the Design Team have created for you.

Now it is your turn! Create a card to link up to 365 Cards choosing the style of one of the 365 Card Designers by November 4, 2013 for a chance to win a package of goodies similar to those we received for the Blog Hop. Good luck!
Hugs, Yvonne
