I can’t believe we’ve reached Day 12 of our 12 Days of Christmas series! It’s been such a joy sharing creative inspiration each day, and today’s project feels extra special — an Old Post Christmas Card with a beautiful vintage touch.
For this card, I watercoloured the background to create a soft, nostalgic wash of colour, reminiscent of aged holiday letters and timeless memories. To enhance that classic, postmarked feel, I used the Perennial Postage Dies — they add just the right amount of texture and detail, perfectly framing the festive design.
I love how this project came together – simple, yet filled with character and warmth, just like handwritten cards from the past.Used Ephemera pack for the Sentiment.
All the details about the project and the PDF will be exclusive to TSL members.
Thank you so much for following along throughout these 12 festive days! I hope you’ve enjoyed the journey as much as I have. Don’t forget to share your creations and tag me – I’d love to see your take on this theme.
