What a gorgeous card.

Deborah Kaye says
Gorgeous card! I really like the die cut background layer. It’s awesome!
Gail Plaskiewicz says
Wow, what a beautiful Christmas card! This is one of those very expensive Hallmark cards, the ones my mom would never have bought because she says ‘Oh, they just look at it and throw it away’. My mom has a whole stack of cards that I’ve seen recently that she didn’t throw away but I guess she meant other people, not her. Would you believe that I make greeting cards and my mom buys Hallmark? Not for the outside of the card, because that is second. That I could do, she tells me. She first looks at the words on the inside of the card and then looks at the outside. Stamp companies don’t make those kind of words like she wants although one stamp company has something kind of similar. I wish I could find more like that so my mom would have me make more cards like that for her.
I don’t have a die cutter so I can’t even begin to replicate your card but I love the background cut outs and the red and green. The calligraphy on the die cut is amazing! I love that one! Your choice of colors is spot on and the whole card is exquisite! This card is a keeper for sure but then I keep all my handmade cards and now, since my dad passed away this past March 20th, anything he signed I have and will keep forever.
Thank you for showing us you’re totally amazing card and for giving us the chance to win something! I want your Poinsettia stamp so bad!
Janie S. says
That is a beautiful card. I love the deep colors!
Tracy says
Gorgeous, Happy holidays!
