Fusion: 1940's Vintage Birthday Card

 
Welcome to another fun Fusion Challenge!
  
I jumped on the sketch this time, specifically the can on the left. Here are the elements I took from that can:
  • blue stripe background (w&w Scenery: Stripes)
  • red label with white writing (Top Dog Dies Gift Tag)
  • yellow outline (shh ... sneak of w&w new release)
  • sentiment printed on top of the stripes (w&w Sugar Rush, Altenew Birthday Bash)
  
The stripes I had to re-do. The first time they were too intense, so I restamped them without taking care to get a solid image. The worn look seemed to fit more with the vintage can photo.
 

Here are some fabulous cards by our design team!

    What a fun card! Love the combination of elements, such a great spring feel and also kind of the feel of some chalkboard art/graphic art. Great mix!

    This is such a perfect card to inspire us based on the photo inspiration, Kelly! I agree with you about the stripes and love how they turned out! I'm thinking about changing my name to Stella ...?! Enjoy the weekend!! Hugs, Darnell
