I stamped the lovely candle stick onto card stock and coloured with watercolour pencils - keeping with the vintage look. Background stamped with HA Flourish in Scattered Straw distress ink. After taking the photo I've added some Stickles Star Dust on the yellow halo round the candle. The sentiment is from Stamp-it. I used my finger nail to distress round the edge.
I also made another vintage style card as well.... borrowing stamps from Sue and Linda....
This one started with a music sheet from My Minds Eye "lost and found Christmas" pack. I overstamped with a Holly stamp (borrowed from Sue) I then cut a cream panel and distressed with Tea Dye and Vintage Photo inks. I then stamped (2nd generation to get the right shade) an Inkadinkado swirl in Forest Moss ink. The Stamp-it sentiment was stamped on white card and distressed with vintage photo. Added a fussy cut Holly ( borrowed from Linda) Finished with some gems. Thanks ladies for sharing....
and here is a photo of Sue working away on Saturday... very industriously.
Thanks for stopping by today...

Love love love these cards Dawn. You make wonderful vintage looking cards....should learn the trick from you:)
wow-this vintage look is beautiful! I love the soft, burnished colors with the small pops of red, green and yellow! Lovely job my friend!
Beautiful Vintage cards Dawn, so wish they had a stamp group near me!!!
Two out of Three is not bad Dawn The last photo I am not too keen on! (what is the time because I look tired), But the cards are lovely.
Smiles:)
Both cards are lovely Dawn - love the soft colour palette with the brighter pops of red.
Vintage (but not too distressed dark) is my favorite style, Dawn, and you have mastered it! Love these two cards and the glimpse into your fun get-together!
Gorgeous cards, love the vintage look

Beautiful holiday cards, Dawn! I can't resist new stamps either! ;) Loving all the layers and stamped patterns!
Both cards are wonderful. The one with the music background is my favourite due to my interest in music(not that I get time to play anymore these days) The red border around the music paper really adds to it, along with the 3 red gems. I like your use of swirls and the holly. A gorgeous card.
Dawn your vintage designs are spectacular. You have such an eye for composition!
Fabulous Christmas cards. Love the music with the holly so festive! Looks like another fun stamp party!
These are beautiful Dawn! I especially love the second one with the layered stamping, so pretty!
