Vintage Christmas


Hello, just a short scheduled post to show another of Nicecrane Design Christmas images.  This one is from the Vintage Merry Christmas sheet. The image was printed onto Ivory hammered card, which gives a lovely vintage texture, cut with Deckle scissors and the Nesti frame cut to fit. The Tim Holtz Tattered poinsettia in vellum was embossed in the CB, and then because it's Christmas - lots of Diamond Dust for sparkle!

I am entering this at:
  Country View Challenges - Vintage Christmas

Thanks for visiting, hope to catch up with you soon.

This is a gorgeous vintage style design. The image looks beautiful with the cut edges and die cut frame, and the DP you chose for the background is lovely. And the poinsettia looks absolutely fantastic with that shimmer and the softness of color that vellum paper has.
