Vintage Home Scene

Hi all - I'm back with another home themed Christmas card for the September Christmas Kickstart Challenge. I was inspired by Elf Tina (Treebug) & her vintage inspiration card.

Supplies: Paper - Park Lane A2 card; Neenah white:
Paper Studio Glitter; BoBunnySnowfall
Stamps - Hero Arts From the Vault Winter Joy &
MMH 11/2019 (sentiment)
Dies - Spellbinders Fancy Edged Ovals (retired);
Other - Park Lane gems;
Tim Holtz Distress Inks - Antique Linen & Tea Dye

I started by stamping two of the images from the Winter Joy set onto a white A2 sized panel. I connected the two by drawing hills between them with a Sharpie. Decided to cut the panel into an oval. I was set to use it in white with a grey scalloped mat when some brown snowflake paper from BoBunny called to me. The white oval was too stark so I vintaged it up with some Distress Ink and matted on a glittery brown scalloped layer. The "sky" needed something so I added a snowflake cluster from the snow globe die set. Stamped & fussy cut the sentiment, then distressed it too. Added some gems - done!

Another Christmas card for the stash - yay! Thanks for stopping & happy crafting!
