You couldn't start much earlier than this! I can say that I won't be making any Christmas cards for quite a while yet, not least because there are so many birthdays and other events in the first 3-4 months of the year!
ReplyDeleteYour design is really beautiful and I love the texture on this card from the embossing and die cut foliage...oooh, and the pretty sparkle looks fab too :-)
Big hugs, Kat xx
Hi Lorraine,
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year.
what a very lovely Christmas card.
I love your wonderful design, and the gorgeous wreath and embossing.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
Sorry to be a day late in commenting, but at least I'm finally having a moment to visit. Lovely wreath, and I like the way you have used the 2 greens to layer this pretty die. (it's one I have, and it looks pretty done in gold too, but I didn't think to use a double layer. That makes it look so much fuller). It's a gorgeous card, and TFS. Happy New Year, and Hugs.
ReplyDeleteOops, forgot to say, I like your new photo too!
ReplyDeleteYour card is beautiful, Lorraine! I love the simple color scheme, and that wreath die is stunning! Thanks so much for sharing your creativity with us at CHNC Extra! :)
