The Road Less Traveled – Card by Nicole Santos

Hello all!
Nicole here with a 5″x7″ card made with the Vintage Artistry Everywhere Collection! I decided I wanted to make a fun card about going off to new and interesting places, that would be good for maybe a graduation or some other celebratory mark, and I wanted to use the gorgeous Everywhere collection to do this!

I decided to make a 5″x7″ card because it would fit lots of different goodies from the collection on it and it wouldn’t look too overwhelmed. I started with the Great Big World paper and cut it down to 4 3/4″ x 6 3/4″ for the background and I used the Ticket Montage paper to add a small strip on the left side of my card which was 1 1/2″ x 6 3/4″. I distressed both pieces and attached to a kraft card base.

Next I used a window frame from the Laser Cut Elements and added some White Lacey Trim over that. I layered up the houses from the Laser Cut Elements as well and topped it all off with a giant pair of binoculars from the Laser Cut Elements.

I added two Wildflowers Paper Flowers in Salt on top of the card along with a sentiment from the Laser Cut Elements. Everything was looking perfect so far but I wanted to add a bit more! So I used some of the Inkwell Color Swatch Acetate Leaves to add a bit more interest and fun to the card and finished with some Everywhere Bubbles and Baubles! I also added some bows under the flowers with the Lacey Trim and the Laser Cut Elements.
