Artistic Outpost

I love vintage.  No secret there.  And I love rubber stamps.  Artistic Outpost has some of the best vintage image stamps around.  I used "The Outpost" plate to make this card for their January referral program.
I have a hoard of vintage and antique papers that I like to pull out when using these stamps. I mixed them with some Basic Grey's PBJ.  And see the embellishment at the bottom?  I made that.  I added some cheap rhinestones to some vintage plastic buttons that I love.
And voila!  Some vintage bling!
