it’s october 1st, which means it’s also WORLD CARD MAKING DAY!!!
if you are a card maker, you’ll be able to find ideas and inspiration ALL over the web today!
i’ve got 2 cards to share with you today. both are holiday cards which will hopefully inspire you to busy crafting YOUR own holiday cards NOW – before the downhill slide to Christmas begins!
i love vintage holiday decorations! i scour flea markets, estate sales and antique shops looking for old holiday decor. so i was REALLY excited when REMINISCE released it’s new holiday collections DEAR SANTA and A CHRISTMAS STORY, both of which have a very nostalgic retro look and were used for this pair of Christmas cards.
other products featured in these cards are Smooch Spritz, ColorBox Fluid Chalk Ink, Top Boss Embossing Pad and Top Boss Embossing Powder, all from CLEARSNAP.
the stamps and paper lace stickers are from HOT OFF THE PRESS.
here is a slideshow with a closer look at the cards and the details…

These are fantastic cards. I was feeling all Christmassy but in the UK we are in the middle of a very unseasonal heat wave and so it feels like July/August now! Becky c
