Another Christmas Card

Good Evening,

Hope you are all doing well, we had our first bit of snow yesterday, nothing to get too excited about, but helps with the Christmas feeling!
I had a rather successful day today, as managed to get the last of my Christmas Shopping and everything is wrapped up already!

I am still a few cards short this year so I sat down to try and get a couple of out the way.  Since at both Less Is More and CAS-ual Fridays the theme was 'Green' I tried to incorporate this into my design, as you will see it is pretty hard to miss!


I cut out my sentiment using my Silhouette/CraftRobo machine and used my Martha Stewart Scallop punch for along the bottom.

Once I had finished it I felt it was a bit too green, so a added a few red sparkles (hopefully that is allowed) I think it gives it a better finish.

Just got to write some Christmas Cards, so away to make a start on that with some Christmas tunes to get me in the mood.
