Brenda's retro memories...

Hi there, it's Sunday and time to take a breather from the busy festive preparations before we get too close!

This morning we're joined by our talented Brenda who is sharing her nostalgic memories with us in this beautiful card...




A Christmas card using the Tim Holtz retro ornaments and packages dies. I was inspired by my memories of those gorgeous glittery and shiny baubles of the 50's and 60's (yes I am really ancient lol) and the old fairisle patterns we used when knitting jumpers - aaaaaah memories!!



A gorgeous card Brenda and a fab mix of styles brought together so cleverly, thank you!

Whether you're into retro, vintage, shabby, CAS or something else, we'd like to see what you make of our 'Nostalgic Christmas' theme.  The winner will receive a £20 shop voucher from our generous sponsor, Country View Crafts to spend in their craft shop.

We'll be back in a couple of days with another project for you, have a great Sunday!
