Another Christmas Card

Good morning to you all! Hope you had a lovely weekend - don't they just fly by!  We went for a lovely walk on Friday afternoon along the seashore, splashing in the sea as we walked along! Invited my sister around for a BBQ on Saturday but first we all went down to the beach with her dogs and had a walk again.  Yesterday was cooler so managed to get some crafting done!

Today sees the start of a new challenge at Lexi's Creations and the theme this fortnight is Christmas in July.  Now I am a last minute panic kind of girl where Christmas cards are concerned so it does feel a bit weird for me to be doing so many festive cards and projects this month! Here is my card:

Slightly wishy washy picture I think!  I decided to go for a vintage type look not sure if I succeeded or not!  The picture is on my file in my pc and it is before I started putting where I got them from so I really apologise for not knowing - I do like to give credit.  I have used Spellbinders die for the mat and the snowflake.  The card was cut using a Go Create XXL die.  The paper is Pion - I finally used a piece of it (I have had it ages and never could bring myself to cut into them).  I used two rubber stamps and gold embossing powder - the music sheet is a LOTV acrylic stamp unfortunately it is starting to perish and is in about three or four pieces but I managed to use it!  The sentiment is Tickled Pink stamps.  Ribbon from The Ribbon Girl, another thing I have difficulty using - far too pretty to cut!! I have used Frantage around the card and on the snowflake and all over my craft room too - it sure blows all over the place even heating it from below.
