To achieve the vintage look, I "aged" the papers I used by making them a brownish color. I even found some of my grandmother's old lace to put on the card. The center is made of seed beads from my jewelry-making stash.

Christmas Poinsettia
Merry Christmas! It isn't even December yet, but I'm in the spirit! I have had so much fun making some Christmas cards using new stamps and diecuts from Heartfelt Creations. One of which is their Poinsettia leaves. I had to make many leaves of five different sizes to create this card, but I'm not complaining! lol Making 3-D cards has always fascinated me, and I love the look, so that is what I wanted to achieve on this card.
