Wenche did this vintage and all over adorable Christmas Card with design from NiceCrane Designs . The design I have printed on a coffee stained tag. It was a bit dark result, but I would try to use the tag anyway, and so the result; Wenche was working with my "Beautiful Birds Save Pack"

I made some highlights with white texture paint / snow effects.

The tag inside the card I've decorated with holly stamp from the set "Morehead, Christmas lights." Colored pencil and with berries of red pearls;

Robins, Snow and......

 Directly From Toni`s Blog ".my new Spellbinder nestie - "A2 Filigree Delight"."

I have wanted a fancy frame die for ages but most of the ones that I had seen needed an A4 cutting machine - something that I do not have. With it being 30% off weekend last week at Pinnacle crafts, I asked Andy for his advice about some dies that I had seen - unfortunately, they didn't have them in stock but he suggested this one and I love it. The "A2 Filigree Delight" is beautiful - the set contains 5 dies including fancy corners and a sentiment banner but I know it is the frame that I will be using the most. The frame has an oval centre which can be left solid for mounting on to, or cut out (the oval die is provided) so that the frame can sit over an image or something that you want to highlight.

I used the frame with the centre cut out to make this...

.

..a tent-fold A5 card. The card blank is smooth white CS and the blue background PP is from the Papermania Christmas range "Noel" - it has little glittery snowflakes all over the surface (which don't show up too well in the photo). I used one of the Christmas Birds images that Ignacio had sent me and laid the frame over the image...

.

..I used some crushed silk ribbon across the card behind the image and to create a nice big bow.

The card was finished off with some glittery snowflake stickers...

...just to keep with the Wintery look & feel. The blue in the image goes so well with the shade of the background PP.

Now usually I'm not a great fan of birds on cards but this collection of Christmas Birds from Nicecrane Designs is absolutely beautiful...

Vintage Candle by Tracy

At Stamping Sensations this month the theme is 'Free & Easy' So you can do whatever you like just as I did. I did a candle in a vintage style using " A Joyful Christmas"

I did have to mess about getting the image to print on tracing paper, but the finished result was worth it. I made poinsettia's for round the base, and I will be making a gift box for this, that will follow soon.

Here is the sentiment I stamped for the back of the candle:-

And now a close up of the poinsettia's:-

And here is the Christmas Sheet used by Tracy
