Vintage Christmas
I have opted for a vintage Christmas card this week for my DT piece for Artistic Outpost using the fabulous Snowy Woods plate.
This is definitely one of my favourite focal images for Christmas this year, wonderful details and such a traditional feel to it. I have combined the image with the Postage Stamp Frame, colouring with brushed corduroy Distress Ink and spritzing with solar gold Luminarte Radiant Rain shimmering mist.
I have also used the aperture from the die cutting to frame my image, embossing the frame with Let It Snow Die'sire Embossalicious Folder, adding wonderful texture to the frame.
The sentiment has been stamped onto a piece of calico adding a Christmas Muse Token for added interest and depth.
A Spellbinders die has been used to add the dimensional poinsettias to the bottom corner adding buttons to the centre.
I have also added the focal image to the inside of my card.

I love this image, the card has a beautiful nostalgic feel. The poinsettias are fabulous in this colour with the buttons. I think I'll have to invest in the postage card frame now! X
Fell in love with this at AO - love the flowers against the golden sepias, and Father Christmas looks so wonderful with that big bushy white beard!
