  1. Love this card Vicky – I’ve not made any Christmas cards yet, but this is the first one I will do! Thank you x

    1. “Hey Sharon, I love that you write such sweet comments but we all know that you and your husband are not sitting side by side at the computer and typing your comments one after the other. I’m sure your husband isn’t even a card maker, you just using his name. It’s kinda silly to use your husband’s name and other aliases just to get extra entries and win, don’t you think?”

  2. Beautiful. There is a glow behind
    the embellishments. All of the glitter
    and the gold is a wonderful addition.
    thanks for sharing

  5. Such a stunning card. Kraft with the colored embellishments looks so comforting. Putting it on the red glitter background was a perfect choice!

  6. This is so beautiful. I love the combination of kraft , white and glitter card stocks. The white spatters are the perfect final touch, I think! 🙂
