HOC: July Shabby & Vintage Challenge

Hi, friends!  I am back with another challenge today at my newest challenge blog--House of Cards!  This challenge is a little bit different but I think you'll like the idea behind it!  Go pop on over for all the details.  Today's challenge is a card making style/color challenge.  We'd like to see some Shabby & Vintage styled cards made with...

This color scheme~
(When playing along, please use at least three.)

Here's my card~

I've used images by Hot Off the Press, lace and ribbon from my stash, large pearls from Studio 112, and all other supplies are by Stampin' Up!.

Thanks so much for stopping by to take a peek at my creation!  This card making style is rather difficult for me and so I'm excited to get to practice it!  I hope you'll join us this week and each week as we all practice our card making together!  Don't forget to pop over and leave some love with the other super talented gals on my Shabby & Vintage DT as well!  HUGS and happy stamping! :)

Hello Mynn
I think you have made a gorgeous Vintage card in a clean style. Your focal image; old phone is so classic, it sets the tone immediately.
A gorgeous card.
