French Vintage cards with Laurie Schmidlin

GD Merci
Good morning!  I have to tell you, I am LOVING the new French Kiss line!  Burlap is so trendy right now, not to mention all the delicious texture it gives...so imagine my delight to see so much of it in the French Kiss collection!  And the bit of corals and red really make all of the subtle vintage patterns pop!  It might just be my favorite Glitz line of all time!

For my first card, I used the softer patterned papers from the French Kiss collection and paired it with a coordinating Whatnot and gorgeous Glitzer!

For my second card, I was trying to achieve that "Vintage French Romance" feel.  The lovely Whatnot, subtle textures and patterns, and the embossed Eiffel tower are all set off by the pop of red.  Burlap and red...that is a match made in heaven I think!  :-)

Thanks so much for joining me here today!  Hugs, Laurie
