I have to post and run but I wanted to share a quick card I made for the December Crafty Secrets Linky Party. Can you believe December is already upon us?
I wanted to stray from the traditional reds and greens for Christmas. Not that I don't love those colors but I was in the mood for something a little different.
I used the CS Creating with Vintage Christmas Download to print the Santa image before inking with distress ink. After cutting out, I adhered it to gold card stock cut from Spellbinders' Lacey Oval die. Next, I applied 'pearls' with my Viva Pearl Pen. I can't believe I went so long without one of these...much less time consuming than using faux pearls.
I cut the flowers from Spellbinders' poinsettia die and inked them with a little vintage photo. The corners were punched with a Fiskars punch.
That's all for now. I hope you enjoy!

Beautiful Christmas card Heather, your inking, matting and the gold pearls are all perfect! I think I need to get myself one of those pens.
