Best Wishes Cardstock by Di Hickman |
|
Beginner - Heritage can be described as a style, invoking images of vintage looking papers, lace, and distressing techniques. Many vintage embellishments are available from old style bookplates, frames, bobby pins and much more. Techniques that invoke the heritage feel include inking, paper tearing, paper folding, and layering. Many of these embellishments and techniques can be used on layouts but they can also be used on cards. I love to send and receive cards, and as a style, heritage can be applied to cards in all manner of techniques.
