One last vintage card
For our last day of Christmas in July, I'm sharing another vintage card from the 1970s. This is just a simple card from a boxed assortment, but I liked many things about it.
The verse, of course, is a familiar one:
"Somehow, not only for Christmas
But all the long year through,
The joy that you give to others
is the joy that comes back to you."
But I like the swirly trim on the edges of the design that give a definite 1970s vibe to the card. I also like the pretty candy jars with the red and white peppermint candies against the card's red background.
Hope you've enjoyed this card as well. Thanks for visiting my Christmas kitchen for Christmas in July!

ReplyDeleteThank you, Vicki, for visiting every day. Doing Christmas in July was a good mental health exercise for me this year and I'm so thankful I was able to post every day. Glad you enjoyed the posts!
DeletePeppermint sticks or candies in a glass jar make such a pretty decoration.
ReplyDeleteDon't they, Pamela? Sometimes it's easy to forget that something so simple can be so pretty.
DeleteThank you for sharing CIJ with us it was so much fun :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you enjoyed it, Luludou! I enjoyed your fun and interesting posts as well for CIJ. I haven't gotten back to anyone's blogs to see their final CIJ posts, but hopefully I can do that soon.
