I stamped the image on watercolour card using archival brown ink, then a quick watercolour wash to make it looked aged. I added Wink of Stella over the trees and the roofs to make add a little sparkle which is quite sparkly IRL but not so much in the photo.
I love this stamp by Serendipity, the stamp is the focal point and is so pretty you don't really need to do much more.

There is nothing I like better than sepia. This is gorgeous, Christine!
This is so pretty, Christine. Love the vintage image done all in browns. xx
What a super rustic Christmas card! I love the clean layout, warm tones and subtle shimmer on the snow. Fabulous effect, and well done you on getting ahead with the Christmas makes. I really need to start stirring myself into action! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Less is More :)
