Christmas card

I was asked to be a guest designer at  Creative inspirations  http://creativeinspirationschallenge.blogspot.com/  Their challenge (49) this week is an Anything goes Christmas challenge. The challenge is being sponsored by Soft Pencil http://digitalstamps.blogspot.com/ and Stamp and Create http://www.stampandcreate.com/.  I am sure you will all be making those last minute Christmas cards so why not pop over to Creative Inspirations, check out all the details and enter your card in the challenge. You have the chance to win some gorgeous digi stamps or a $10 voucher.
I decided to make mine a Vintage Christmas card. I used some gorgeous designer paper and layered my card. I used a lovely Vintage image and a Poinsettia flower. I added two rows of pretty cream lace and framed the edges of my card with some sparkly  gold ribbon.
I decided to enter a few of the Christmas challenges this week and have listed them below.
