If there's one kind of card that I never tire of making it's Christmas cards, as I know that none will ever be wasted. Some cards which I make for challenges sit in my box of finished cards for years, but Christmas cards always find a home. I seem to send so many each year, for many friends it's my one annual communication with them, so it's important for me. I haven't bought a Christmas card for many years now and I think that the recipients of my cards enjoy the fact that I spent time making them!
This card uses a word die from Florartistry entwined with a couple of holly and ivy die cuts, the origins of which I have long since forgotten! I stacked the NOEL a few times to add a little definition and mounted it on a pierced die cut panel, adding just a few pearls for the holly berries!

The bauble dies were freebies from a magazine! Tiny tags by Alexandra Renke.
