Vintage Christmas challenge

The current challenge at Jingles Belles is to create a vintage Christmas card, either with actual vintage items or vintage-feel items.

I recently bought a box of misc. items at an antique store, and found a vintage Christmas card in the box.  I fussy cut around the image, added various colored stickles for sparkle, and then mounted it on this card with foam tape.  The background papers are from Graphic 45.


From other items in the box, I'm guessing this card is from the early 60's.  I like to think that this old Christmas card will finally get in the mail this year to spread some Christmas cheer!
