I am one of those people that have to have some extra special cards that I send to my treasured family and friends each year. These type of cards have to be hand delivered though, as I tend to create them a little bulky lol.

And as I simply adore Shabby Chic and Vintage looks, this is the style I have chosen to create my first couple of Christmas cards in.
AND Some of the new products lend itself to these looks extremely well!

I do get VERY excited about texture and I must say that while I was creating these two cards I started giggling and clapping like a little girl at Christmas time haha. I was just a bit happy that no-one was home at the time too lmao!

Here is a little info about what went into these designs.

 I have only used a small piece of Designer Series Paper for this card. The DSP and the corrugated Crumb Cake has been distressed around the edges.
The word joy has been coloured using sponge daubers and Bright Copper Shimmer Paint.
I also created a poinsettia to top my card with.
I mentioned this small Poinsettia that you can see in another post earlier today.
If you click the words Home Decor you can see the full post and how the basic Poinsettia's are made using my FREE pictorial instructions.

I have kept the Shabby Vintage feel for this card too, using a lot of the same elements from my first card.
The main difference between these two cards is the added piece of DSP behind the 'Tin Tile' embossed 'Cherry Cobbler' card stock and the label plate.
I created the sentiment label plate using 'Pretty Label' punch and the 'Bright Copper Shimmer Paint'. This was given a tarnished effect by rubbing Memento black ink around the edges and gently over part of the front. I also added metallic brads in copper to each end.
To bring the Crumb Cake colour from the background to the front I have added a pulled apart length of Burlap Ribbon behind the sentiment plate.

 I have used 'Old Olive' and 'Mossy Meadow' card stock for the sprigs. The Berries have been stamped using the two step stamp from the 'Peaceful Noel' stamp set, in 'Memento' and 'Cherry Cobbler' inks. One layer of the Berries has had the 'Clear Epoxy Droplets' added after colouring with the 'Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blends'.
