Jingle Belles Vintage Christmas

When you create does your mood dictate your choice of colours and textures ... or maybe even your style? What do you imagine when you think of vintage?

Today I got to catch up with the challenge at Jingle Belles ... which is to make a vintage Christmas card ... I never have a picture in my head ... I play about with things ... go with what I am feeling ... 
I wanted some music paper in there ... that always says vintage to me ... turned out my music got kinda covered by the other paper choices I made ... I wanted lace, but ended up with pompom trim ... I was going to add holly and berries ... but I made a ribbon rosette and added a white flower ... But glitter ... well at least that got in there and was not covered over ... 


Judging by my work table and the floor ... you'd think I'd made at least 10 cards ... not just one ...
But I'm content with it ... guess that's what matters


Have you started your holiday cards yet? It's kind of hard to get into Christmas mode for me ... but I'm trying ...

Have a lovely Sunday
