Tis the Season



I had a friend order some Christmas cards so I made several different ones. It is nice to able to put together a lot of simple cards and some look so elegant. Just goes to show that you don't have to overdo things to make them beautiful.

Happy card -

Inks: Basic Black, Real Red stamp pads, Real Red, Old Olive, Chocolate Chip Stampin' Write pens
