Victorian Gentleman


These new Gas Lamp Sign dies from Die-Versions remind me of Victorian England, so I wanted to create something along those lines.  The Gentleman is a rubber stamp from CowTown Stamps and the cobblestones were stamped with a Beeswax Stamp (stone floor).  Pan Pastels were used to make the night sky, complete with twinkling stars (Celestial glitter from Sparkle N Sprinkle).

Visit the Die-Versions Blog for more great inspiration.

Very cool vintage card. I kind of wish the gents were still like this! Not the part where they look at women as a weaker and lesser set, but the manners and fashion and all. I like this a lot! Hugz!
