52 Cards Challenge: Week 48

Welcome to the last prompt of the month.

This week's elements are:

Rub-ons: If you are like me there will be a whole stack of these in the bottom of a box somewhere dating back quite a few years! I've not used rub-ons in ages, so a good excuse to check through the stash pile.

Pearls: My favourite little addition to card projects. Especially the teeny tiny ones from kaisercraft.

Vintage: Well you can go with any interpretation for this. Old era papers, ephemera, printables, or just plain old distressing.

And yep, it's another Christmas offering from me!

I made two cards to fit this challenge, but wasn't so happy with how the first one turned out:

Paper: Basic Grey
Sticker: Basic Grey
Label: Basic Grey
Pearls: Kaisercraft
Glitter rub-on: Making Memories
Other: Stickles, 3D foam, chalk ink

The reason I'm not so happy with how it turned out is the way the glitter rub-on appears in most light, it doesn't photograph that well and looks rather blurry and not so glittery... Bit of a shame...

As for the second card, well the Distress Stickles were still drying when I had to take the photos as I was almost out of daylight, so the glittery border will look a lot better once it dries:

Paper: Basic Grey
Chipboard: Basic Grey
Rub-ons: Luxe designs (stitches)
Felt: PTI
Stamp: Waltzing Mouse Stamps
Dies: Spellbinders
Pearl: Kaisercraft

The Stickles are Shabby Shutters so should be a nice compliment to the moss green ink of the greeting once dry and flat. :)

Happy creating!
