Good Sunday morning all! Today's Christmas card offering is a very simple traditional one. I started with a piece of white card as my background. I cut the
Merriest Christmas Wishes sentiment in red and glued it to the bottom of the card. For the focal element, I cut the
Deco Snowflake Background die in white. I cut the outer piece first then layered up the smaller rectangular piece from the die set. I added it above the sentiment with mounting foam. I cut a centre oval and added the
Poinsettia Stem die cut in khaki for the stem and leaves and red for the flower. I added a backing to the flower that was cut out of a small piece of Red Glitter Kiss card. I glued the flower on to the oval in the centre of the card. I added small flatback pearls to the background as accents . The card was completed with white and red mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 8 3/4" in size. All for now. Sue x

Good morning Sue and all.
A fabulous card for sure, So very elegant and somehow saying "All will be well"
I am so far behind with my cardmaking for Family and Friends that I need something easy and quick. I have the sentiment but not the flower. Actually the card lends itself for a variant doesn't it. I might just have a go later.
Thank you for all you do for us.
