Midway at Simply Magnolia-"Vintage"

Good Sunday morning dear blogging friends!!

We're at the half way point of our Simply Magnolia "Vintage" challenge...it's Team Glamour's turn to show you our takes on this challenge!!  Our fabulous sponsor is Live and Love Crafts!!!

I've started to panic a bit when I see the Christmas count down on some of your wonderful blogs...SO...a Christmas card was in order!

Here is what I came up with...

please click on the first image for a closer view/slideshow...

I decided to go with a simple style...

I found this fabulous "vintage" looking paper in my stash...

sorry can't remember who it's by...

 this little sweet heart is from the "Tilda with Rudolph" from the Christmas Story 2012 collection...

coloured with my distress inks...

dusted with Chunky White Frantage...

framed by the gathered tulle ribbon...

 closer view...

 pearl/diamante stick pin decorated with a diamante Christmas tree charm (which is turned the wrong way so you can't make it out...lol), chiffon ribbon, beaded berries and some beads from my stash...

the tag made using a Whimsy stamp...

the poinsettias were made using Tim Holtz Sizzix "Tattered Poinsettia"...

I applied gesso and then some brushed with Tattered Angels glitter paint...

 the inside...

the lace is also on the front on the card...covered up of course...lol...



One Christmas card done!!  Time for you to hop on over to Simply Magnolia and check out the work of my talented team mates!!
