Back to School - Featured Designer Challenge by Ute Thenert


Here we have a card also using the photo of my mother.  I took the basic card, stamped two corners with an old motif and layered with patterned paper.   Then, I glued the ribbon.  The photo was taken to the top with underlying brown crackle paper.  Embellishments like the QuicKutz flower die complete the card.

Rev-0033 Daisy
Rev-0174 Flower
Flower #4 Make 3 Min Cards
CC-SHAPE-07 Flower Shape

I remembered the old photo of my mum and my own picture as beginner at school.  So, it lies on hand to make a scrapbook page in Vintage Style.
For the embellishments I used these wonderful flower dies from Quickutz / Lifestyle Crafts.
