I purchased some jpeg's of actual vintage Christmas cards and postcards some time ago and finally found the papers I needed to use them. These Bo Bunny Chrismas papers are just perfect. I think you may be seeing a few more in the next few days.
The inspiration for this card started with last Tuesday's Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge.
The ribbon was 3/8" satin ribbon that I hand stitched a zig zag parrern is then pulled the threads to ruffle it together. I thought this looked more vintage then just using the ribbon. The white pointsettia flower brad was in some stash that I had from last years embellishment assortment called Mistletoe from Close to my Heart . I distressed it then attached it to pointsettia leaves from an old CTMH stamp set.
The Hand stitching was done with new England Ivy Embroidery Floss up the sides and top of the cards.
