Vintage Santa

I thought as it is so hot I would create some Christmas cards - it didn't do much to cool me down though!


I used my Simple Stories Simple Vintage Christmas Collection, everything is from the collection, I just added some red card stock.  I used a very old Spellbinders die to create the Poinsetties and added Hunkydory Gems to the centres, the sentiment is from the Bits & Pieces Die Cuts.


It is so hot here at the moment, I am finding it difficult to craft as my craft room is south facing - lovely in the winter but not so good when it is this hot!

Thank you for visiting my blog today, your company is much appreciated - please leave a comment so that I can come and visit you.

    I love vintage cards like this and it's a fabulous image of Santa. My craft room gets too warm in the mornings but not too bad in the afternoons so I can escape from the heat for a little while x

    This is stunning Pauline, if only making Christmas cards were a way to cool down at the moment.

    A really super image, some lovely papers and super embellishments. Perhaps you should have done lots of snowy ones.
