I love the tradition of sending out Christmas cards. I usually make and send out approximately 60 of them. I have my first design done and am going to post it here. I have to say, I really want the card itself to be a deeper green, more of a forest, but this is all I have on hand at the moment.
The poinsettia is actually three separate stamps in different sizes. I used Adirondack ink in cranberry and stippled it on the stamp. That seemed to be the only way I could get any of the three sizes inked up properly. I did the stamping last night. I did the cutting out of one set of three poinsettias the morning and then set the card with a brad to hold them together. I need to find a front sentiment but will possibly leave it just the flower.
