I love the bell theme. I have hundreds of vintage Christmas (many bell themed) all waiting their turn to be altered with a more modern flair. What a plain card this was. I first added Wink of Stella for shine, then the Sizzix Peace Die cut, the glittery sticker and then the groovy duck, complete with rose-colored glasses, which was cut on the Scan N Cut and then colored with alcohol markers. I used gold photo corners for mounting on white CS, so the recipient can remove and open to read the sentiment and signature of the original owner- "Clarice 1951"

Lori this made me smile and so you. I love the large bell and the groovy duck with his peace sign and in the bell too is perfect. How cool that the original owners signature is inside. Love it. Thank you for playing in my challenge. I’m glad we connected too. May this year be better...upward and onward. Hugs

I always love your little photo corners, they add so much. Cool card with your fun embellishments. The groovy duck is a very fun combination with the Peace wish for Christmas.

Great bell and fantastic Christmas card! I have already started on this year's Christmas cards as I have a bunch to get made and do a few every week. This is wonderful!

This is a fun card! It is great that you used the phot corners so the original signature could be seen and enjoyed! Too bad most of my parents card collection got thrown out before I got there. They had some very old cards from friends and relatives. I remember going through the box several times over the years looking at all of them.
