Vintage Cafe Card Challenge 3 ~ flourishes

 Good Morning!
Today is the Vintage Cafe Card Challenge and this one is to use flourishes.
 Who doesn't love flourishes, they are so pretty and vintage, anyway you use them! 
I used 2 of the new Crafty Secrets stamp sets, Mini Frames and Grand Greetings. I mounted the image on a piece cut with my Spellbinders Big Scalloped Ovals SM. I mounted that on a paper doilie that I trimed a little so it would have a straight edge. The card base is Neenah Solar White cardstock and the pattern papers are from the Creating with Vinatge Patterns CD. The flourishes are from Maya Road, I painted them with my Ranger Snowcap paint dabber and sprinkled glitter on the wet paint. The white felt flower is cut with MFT rolled flower die and I put a Kaiser pearl in the center and some more at the top of the stamped frame. The white leaf is punched with a Martha Stewart punch. I trimmed off the right edge of the card front about 1/2" and adheared the vintage lace on the inside of the card front. I put a strip of the pattern paper on the back inside edge.
Go to the Vintage Card Cafe blog to check out the challenge and upload your card, you could be the winner of some nice prizes!
Good Luck!
