Clarity Challenge "Vintage"


Last gasp annie again!!!!! I have been thinking about this challenge all month and could not work out what I wanted to do.   I have been playing with my gelli plate and masks and was quite pleased with this one a buff titanium wavy dots overlaid with a pale blue leafy bough.  I added a cream spellbinder border around my card and topped it with the beautiful  "velvet" lady coloured with promarkers mounted on the same cream card and finished it with a cream lace flower with a button.
Its now 5 30 the challenge ends at 8pm  so I had better move it 

here is the Clarity challenge

Thanks for looking, leave me a message if you have time.
