White with 1 February challenge

I am sharing a layout I made for the challenge over at

White with 1
February challenge is - White + Brown + Vintage item(s)

Here's my take......


I started with "not so happy, not so satisfied" with my own work to beginning to like it when I started to add bits of things here and there, so yeah, I would say I like the end result.


The white background dabbed with brown dabble paint looks like a disaster to me at first, well, after I sprayed some vintage ink spray, it didn't look that bad after all


The sheet music is a real vintage item found at garage sale, and the bingo card, ahhh.... scrapbooking product vintage findings, is that how you called them?



Hop over to white with 1 if you want to play along with this fun challenge

    I just love this page, you are right to be pleased with it. There is nothing more satisfying than creating a layout with a custom background and I just love the brown 'frames' around the photo's. x

    Kirsty, I have to say each time I log into your page. You always have fabulous works to share. I love this vintage page and I love your new design card too from color Q! It is not so bad to try something different once a while. I would love to try something else, once in a blue moon :D. Good day to you.
