Oh dear, so many Christmas challenges I wanted to enter this week and unable to choose. Anyway, I new I wanted to to make a vintage Christmas card for my son and this is it. I used kraft card and lots of layering and distressing. I used a piece of song sheet music which is called " Santa Claus so Jolly" and distressed the edges with bundled sage distress ink. I added gold brad snowflakes and some webbing. Bearing in mind I was ill for a couple of days this week I was lucky to get it finished today. I was pleased with the end result.
Two of the challenges I have entered are :-http://sparklesforumchallenges.blogspot.com/ (vintage) and http://trulyscrumptiouschallenges.blogspot.com/ who's challenge is Xmas + pearls or vintage.
What a wonderful card, Shirley! Love that incredible vintage Santa and all the details. Really happy that you chose to play along at Cooking It Up with Katie this time. Remember, you can enter a total of 3 times while this challenge runs during December. Merry Christmas. NanaConnie DT Chef
