Vintage lace

I decided to make another card for A Blog Named Hero's challenge "If I could turn back time", but NOT go with shabby chic!  I wanted to make a CAS card, but with a vintage feel.  With this in mind, I thought I'd try using the colours of CASual Fridays challenge, "Black&White plus1".  This is what I came up with.

Seeing as the focal point is the red rose, I thought I'd also sumbit this to CASology - "RED"




I hope you're having a lovely day :)

**Update - after a couple of comments asking about the lace, it is not actual lace or a stamp, it is patterned paper (one of my favourites) from Cristina Re - you can find it HERE.
