My card today uses Asela's ultra-fabulous retro images on this monochromatic card (in my favorite color!). I paper pieced this lovely lady's apron using the houndstooth pattern from my latest set (more info tomorrow), Vintage Backgrounds. Don't you just love the vintage images and sentiment? The argyle background is included in my latest digital paper pack, Bright and Grungy Argyles, which will also be available on Thursday night. The card base is Lipstick Red.
