I used the Marigold Seed Packet image on this card, one of my favorite Serendipity stamps. I think black and cream are a great vintage combination, it makes me think of yellowed book print or old packaging.I paired my seed packet image with patterned paper from October Afternoon. The trims are a bit of this and that accumulated from the fabric store. So much depth for only two colors! I'd love to do this again and add a pop of yellow or red.
I'm so glad you stopped by today, please be sure to visit the other Design Team members to see their take on the challenge!
