Second red OR green card

And here's my green but not red, which used bits from a couple of different card-making attempts, particularly from the recent vintage-themed challenge:

Green OR Red (but still not both)

The current Jingle Belles challenge to create a card using either green but not red OR red but not green was surprisingly hard for me. I almost completed a "green" card before realizing that it had a bit of red in it. So that's in the pile of unfinished, ready to go for something...can't have too many Christmas cards I say. Anyway, here's my red...

Vintage Holly

The current Jingle Belles challenge Walking in a Vintage Wonderland is to create a vintage style Christmas card (a really fun theme suggested by guest star Linda Brun). I used a vintage style postcard with pressure embossed cardstock and scrapbook paper for background, and added some lacy ribbon and a couple holly embellishments. I love the girl and her dog, but decided that the overall effect is a bit drab. I'm going to try another card today and go for more color. For the first time I'm also submitting to the Christmas Cards All Year Round July challenge, to include holly or poinsettia in the card. The photo is slightly blurry but I took the shot several times with various approaches and it always appears this way.
