A Special Christmas Wish

I'd like to wish all my customers, friends and loved ones a very Merry Christmas. 

This year I created hybrid cards for my Christmas greetings, incorporating both printed photos and stamped elements. I took some photos of my son Jordan helping to decorate our Christmas tree earlier this month for the purpose of putting these together.  There were four photos I really loved in the end so I made four different versions of the card incorporating the same design but alternating the photos. 

 

The Tree Trimmings Stamp set fit in perfectly with my pictures.  I stamped one ornament in matching Real Red Ink and another embossed in gold to decorate the front of the cards. A little pearl added an extra special touch to the smaller ornament. 

The backing card stock is Very Vanilla.  The internal sentiment comes from the Christmas Greetings Stamp Set, while the 'Merry Christmas' on the front comes from the Petite Pairs Set.

I love the way the gold embossing shimmers in the light.

Thank you for visiting my blog in 2011. I hope you'll visit again soon.  Wishing you all the best for a happy, safe and prosperous 2012.

Warmest wishes,
Jenn
