Back In Time For Stampotique

It's challenge time again over at Stampotique, and the lovely France has chosen a vintage theme. I love vintage, but it's not my strong suit lol so here's my retro/vintage piece.
The background is mainly designer paper that I've chopped up and distressed. My Stampotique Courting couple are my go to stamps for anything vintagey They are one of my first Stampotique stamps and if I really had to chose a favourite I think it would be this one (I'm so glad I don't have to chose though)
I've stamped them onto watercolour card for some texture. Arn't they the perfect couple!
Please check out the challenge blog where you can see how vintage should be done :-) and then join in the fun.
Hope the sun is shining for you, and thanks very much for looking x

    We are all our own worst critics, Sue, but there is no criticism on this one. Totally brilliant in my book!

    That's fantastic! It reminds me of American billboards from the 1940's/50's.

    Love the retro look you've captured - all those fonts and words work brilliantly, and I love the courting couple - even the phrase "courting couple" in fact!!

    Fabulous card!
