This card was inspired by the Creating Keepsakes Dec 2008 magazine article "A very vintage christmas". There they used these heather bailey papers that are spring colors, and by pulling out the green in them and enhancing with the traditional green and red, you get a vintage look. I got my idea from the card on p.69. I hand cut the holly. The label panel (the one that looks like nestabilities LABELS 1) is actually a table marker from the wedding section at Michaels! I inked the edge of this shape and added red dots with a gel pen, then stickles.I kinda like the way this turned out! see, even flowery spring paper can be used for christmas! I'm trying to "think outside of the box" ! whatcha think of this card?
