I will move away from Christmas cards shortly I promise, and start with spring flowers and summer displays again ... definitely my favourite type of card.
But for now this Christmas flowery card has used some of the beautiful Poinsettias from Wild Orchid crafts
Into this mix I have added Roses and a little Holly Sprig
The background is created with Grate Effect which has been layered over Antique Gold card and then I have added in Fleur de Elegance also in gold
The little die cut sentiment is from Craft Stash and there are lots of different phrases for you to choose
The cheery red ribbon is tied into a single bow with a shiny dazzler in the centre to cover the knot.
Altogether a pretty and traditional type of card and if you swap out the sentiment it could be for any other occasion
More tomorrow ...
