I needed to make a card for a co-worker who is Jewish. From what I am told, Hanukkah cards are usually blue and white. I hope this one is ok.
I used a Studio G acrylic stamp from Michael's and stamped with Versamark and heat embossed with Menorha in silver glitter ep. I colored the flames yellow. I used the SU scallop punch to make a medallion and used navy blue brads for the corners and doodled some on the scallops. I used a white organza ribbon on top of a royal blue ribbon and adorned with silver gems.
For the bg, I used royal blue cs and versamarked the Star of David and embossed with white ep.
Please let me know what you think, k?

It is so thoughtful of you to create a Hanukkah card for your friend - and a beautiful one at that!! What colours they are meant to be, I don't know! You surely are correct.. Beautiful card and a so much thought behind it too!

My secret sister this year was Jewish. Love this idea! I was at a loss for what to stamp her.
