In recognition of 4th July this week, Jingle Belles decided that we should incorporate stars and/or stripes into our designs.
I expected to go through my stash and come across lots of both but was surprised to see that I have no stars at all in the Christmas section!
I therefore went with the stripes of which I had lots to choose from! I think that almost every single collection I have has one or more to go with and in the end I chose yet another vintage selection from My Mind's Eye.
Oh, how I love MME!
Non traditional colours and a few layers and there you have it.
This is SOOOO pretty Lisa! I absolutely love the soft vintage feel it has. Spectacular!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous.... I love the vintage feel of this card and the touch of lace is so pretty.xxxxx
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite holiday collections ... did you letters come that way or did you ink them up? ... they are a perfect match for the vintage shabby feel ... fantastic holiday card ... so glad you joined us at jingle belles.
ReplyDeletereally pretty...love the colors!
ReplyDeleteLovely Lisa - what a soft take on a holiday card.
ReplyDeleteoof--MME!!! utter ♥perfection♥ for this, but i confess i didn't see it comin'... i was thinkin' basic grey!!! :) :) :)
ReplyDeleteand YEAH who knew that blue, white, brown and tan could look SO VERY FESTIVE?! ok, well, clearly YOU did--well done! i especially love the sentiment here, and what a brilliant use of that little "wishlist" journaling card. brilliant all-round; love it! ♥♥♥
ps: the little faded snowflake elements on the MME papers are actually kind of star-like, aren't they? (just a little "bonus" cool thing i noticed on second glance!) :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a gorgeous card and I'm a big fan of stripes too - and polka dots! Thanks for popping by my blog!
ReplyDeleteWow wow wow, I love every bit of this, so pretty!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Lisa! I love the soft tones of this card, just lovely!
ReplyDeleteI love the colors you've used. A wonderful card.
ReplyDeleteThis is a GORGEOUS card, Lisa. As for MME, BasicGrey has been my #1 favorite since I first saw it in 2004, but as of this year, I think MME is now #1 for me. I don't own a lot of MME, but I still love my old MME papers as much as my new lime twist collection.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful card! I have that MME paper, but in different colors...may have to card-lift this one!
