Hi, Friends......
I am here with another set of Christmas in July cards I made using vintage stickers. These were the other stickers on the sheet with the angels that I used HERE. Thank you to crafty pal, Karen, for these! <3
I used patterned paper scraps to make the oval and fancy frames for the stickers....and also for the pretty die cut Merry Christmas greeting. This sentiment die was a prize from the lovely Di Wray at Pixie's Snippets Playground. (THANKS, Di!! xoxox) I stamped some holly on the background to give it more depth and add to the vintage appeal.
Supplies used include:
Vintage stickers from Karen Ladd
My Favorite Things Die-namics - Stitched Oval STAX die set (retired)
Spellbinders die (rec'd in prize, cannot find online)
Creative Expressions - Sue Wilson - Mini Christmas Wishes die
DCWV scraps from stash
Holly on margins of background - Stamper's Anonymous - TH Collection 2016 Stamptember Holiday stamp set (retired)
Simon Says Stamp - Khaki ink

Hope you enjoyed these easy vintage cards! I had so much fun making them......and I actually used ALL the stickers on that sheet. Yay....one less thing in my stash.....only 3 million things to go!! lol...
Comet Neowise
Have any of you seen Comet Neowise yet? It's the finest comet for visibility in years. I haven't seen it yet, but I am going to look at sunset for it this evening. Right now, in most places it is visible in the early morning and just after sunset. I have a clearer look to the west than to the east so I couldn't see it when I got up early the other morning. I'll let you know if I see it tonight! More info HERE.

Pretty Christmas cards. I like the framing.
ReplyDeleteI just love these vintage designs and the Christmas foliage stickers look wonderful with the fancy frame and die cut sentiment. The stamped holly around the edges are subtle but give a lovely extra dimension to your card! I'm thinking that I need to pull out a sheet of those sticker too and get to work!! You've inspired me...and put me to shame, haha!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful set of cards, great vintage look!! Thanks for Celebrating Christmas in July with us at Die Cut Divas.
ReplyDeletesuch pretty card! I love that sentiment die!
ReplyDeleteSo delighted to see you using the sentiment die Janis - it's gorgeous on vintage themed cards isn't it. Great use of snippets. Am i bad? I almost cried laughing about your close encounter with the little skunk! :) Sorry.
