Vintage Christmas......

Morning peeps hope you are all well, I'm up bright and early waiting for my Grandson so won't get the chance to blog later because I will be too busy playing trains and horsey around the house......my poor back again!!
I've made a vintage Christmas card that I thought I'd show today as it seems ages since I've done anything remotely distressed or grungy. The stamps I've used are from Viva, lots of lovely Vintage Christmas designs and at only around £5.99 a sheet they are brilliant value and they stamp well, I ussually prefer rubber for a better image. I've spritzed all the images with lashings of Heirloom gold perfect pearl mists which doesn't show that well on the photo. The papers are a gorgeous Christmas book that I picked up in a sale last year in fact I brought two of them as the papers are divine and I didn't want to use them because I can't get any more......sad I know!! the paper pad is called Joyful Peace by Tina Higgins from g.c.d studios. I added vintage glass glitter by Melissa Frances to the edges of the Poinsettia die by Marianne designs and then added the button with the the threaded ribbon through on top. the sentiment is the freebie stamp on the cover of this months Craft Stamper Magazine designed by the Stampman......it dropped through the door at the right moment.
