My Christmas cards were a bit late in the mail this year. Just when I think I have them all finished, I remember another that must go out. For those of you I was unable to send a hard copy to, please accept this cyber greeting! This year, I used one of my altered, vintage Christmas cards as the cover for our family cards. I inherited a couple of boxes of cards, receipts and papers from my dear grandma, several years ago. Among the ephemera was a small collection of vintage Christmas cards. They seemed to call out for altering and this card is one result. I applied the same techniques I use for my altered cabinet cards. Fun, fun!
