The challenge at Jingle Belles this week was to create a vintage style card. I used some of last year's Pink Paislee Christmas papers to make these two cards, and based them on sketch #166 from Unscripted Sketches.
It doesn't show up well in the photos, but I used some rock candy Stickles, antique linen Distress Stickles, gold Stickles, and rock candy crackle paint on these cards to add a little vintage "bling". I'm not normally a big fan of bling and sparkle on my projects, except for Christmas projects.
Now to put on a little Christmas music and get started on some more holiday projects!
