Making French Vintage Style Recipe Cards

 
I was asked to design some recipe cards for a bridal shower that had some vintage style to them and a little French country feel.
 
 The cards need to fit inside a recipe box the client ordered and wanted 4" x 6" cards and dividers.
I selected a French Speckletone 80# cover cardstock in Oatmeal color and used black text and ink for the hand-stamped images.
 Came up with a couple of designs using different fonts and she like this one.  The fork & spoon and rose images are two different looks.  I have another Jane Austin that is coming out soon.  These can be printed on white, cream of the French Speckletone...which is my favorite paper right now.
 The client selected the rose patterned cards as the recipe box had a rose on it as well and would coordinate nicely.
 She wanted matching dividers of I came up with these.  Used a lovely Spellbinder die for the tab piece and mounted some on the left, center, and right with a rose image stamped in the center.
 Packaged them all up and off they go to a happy customer!
And as in most of my designs, there is scripture on the back that reads Love the LORD with all your heart. 

Have a blessed day,
Valerie
