The Spirit of Christmas Past

Our newest challenge at Jingle Belles is all about ringing in the OLD... which is to say, we're creating cards with a vintage or retro vibe. That could mean incorporating actual vintage elements, using new products that have a vintage style, or using stamps or images that convey a retro vibe; whatever says vintage to you.



I recently found a little stash of well-hoarded German Scrap that I had put aside, including these gorgeous Father Christmas images. I've made a distressed background from vintage sheet music, accented with red and green patterned papers, set off by a strip of Eyelet Outlet Washi Tape that features images of vintage postcards.


As an extra incentive to play along, one randomly selected cardmaker who links up with us this time will receive: A Deluxe Christmas Assortment of holiday-themed vintage and found papers from my Etsy Shop, Just Enough Stuff, plus a set of Christmas Word Art clear stamps, some very fun holiday Stickpins, and a collection of doilies in various shapes, sizes and colors. 

This challenge runs through 6pm on Wednesday, September 6th at Jingle Belles
