A Vintage Christmas Card

As some of you know I am teaching some classes for the ART of CRAFT in Farnborough, Hants, this term and this is one of the Christmas cards we will be making on Wednesday 26th October 10:00 – 12:00. The class is almost full, but if you fancy coming along then ring the shop on 01252 377677. Alternatively I will be teaching techniques using distress inks on Saturday 8th October 10:00 – 3:00 and making a mini album on Saturday 12th November 10:00 – 12:30 and 1:30 – 4:00.






My cards are made using paper from the Dovecraft Victorian Christmas pack, TH rostte, chipboard snowflake and stickles. The sentiment banner was generated using PE4.
I have made a second one to show the same design but using different papers and two smaller rosettes.






I would love to see you if you are in the area.


luv and hugs {brenda} xoxox

Thanks for all your lovely comments - hugs, Sylvia xxx
