V for Vintage, DT card for ABC Christmas Challenge a midway reminder.

I'm back with a midway reminder for the

V for Vintage

Challenge at ABC Christmas Challenge.

This challenge has been difficult for me.
Vintage is NOT my stile!

But to challenge yourself from time to time is a way to
learn how to do new things.

And believe me, I had a great time creating
this card. I made my card at the floor,
and I had stuff all over.
It was so difficult to decide what to use.
I had a lot of ideas, but realized
that I coulden't use it all at one card.

Who knows, someday I might surprise all- included
myself-and create another Vintage card.

For sponsor information and further inspiration,
visit the ABC Christmas Challenge Blog.

I found the inspiration for this on Henrikke's amazing blog.

The base of my card is a brown bag. I have cut it down a bit.
All edges are distressed with Vintage Photo.

If you want to know some more about distressing,
Stempeleinmaleins has a fab tutorial here.

On the background paper I have used a sentiment stamp from Kort og Godt.

Underneath the little angel there is a doily, and some corrugated cardboard.
The cardboard is painted with gesso.

The hearts are made with a punch and I have added a lot of glitter on them.
Around the hearts some Scrappers Floss with an angel charm.
Finally a brown packet leash with a bow.

Inside there's a big tag, punched in one end with a Martha Stewart punch.
The Father Christmas stamp is from Inkadinkado.

The seam binding is coloured with tea to get the right brown colour.

(Well, the truth is I couldn't find my Mini Mister,
so I had to find an alternative!)

On the back you can see that it's a paper bag I've used.
Pearls, cardboard and my personal stamp.
