Vintage Christmas Pair


Hi everyone!  It's Monday, and I have a dentist appointment first thing....why in the world did I ever schedule that on a Monday???  Anyway, I have two cards today for the Jingle Belles challenge, which is vintage Christmas!  I peeking into my vintage Christmas stash and found some cute Crafty Secrets pages and cut a couple apart to make some notecard-sized cards:


The background of these images seemed to match Soft Seafoam perfectly!  On my Santa one, I embossed the front with a knit-type embossing folder, then added a Poppy Parade mat, some glimmer paper stars and a little diecut sentiment:


I backed the sentiment with some glimmer paper too: 

For my snowman card, I randomly stamped some snowflakes on the card front, added a little sentiment flag and some Pistachio Pudding twine:


And the inside uses some Paper Pumpkins sentiments and snowflakes:


Thanks for popping in today!  No pictures, but I'll have some interesting ones tomorrow!!  Enjoy your day and be blessed!

Adorable vintage cards, LeAnne! Love the cute panels that really do look like that go with Poppy Patade & Soft Seafoam perfectly. Have fun at the dentist. 😏

I so enjoy your vintage Christmases LeAnne! You know I adore the embossing, but the snowflakes stamped on your card base is just perfection, too!
Hope you have a 'look ma, no cavities!' kind of appointment!
