Birgit, your gallery is the most amazing - you are a talented artist and I don't come close to creating art the way you do, but when I saw this card I figured I could tackle it and change it to a Christmas card.
I kept the same wonderful layout, put changed the colors to a Christmas theme and used flowers, snowflakes and pearls~the red pearls are a RAK from Wattle-thanks Kathy~ rather than flowers, buttons and a butterfly.
I used the Holly Ribbons ef for the 2 whie panels, added some flowers, snowflakes, green pearls and a greeting to put this card together. I popped up the main panel on dimensionals.
It was a fun card to make and pretty quick, which I really need, but I thought it looked like I put much more time into it than I actually did.
Thanks Birgit for your beautiful inspiration. Again, your gallery is OUTSTANDING!!!
Thanks for visiting and let me know what you think if you have a chance.

Oh, I do love this mostly white card trimmed out with the tradional red and green. You really made the white stand out with that lovely Holly Ribbons embossing folder. I am sure Birgit will be happy to see your CASE of her beautiful card.
Love your poinsettias/pearls and the very pretty sentiment piece. Wish I could have joined in today.

Such a pretty card, but I'm surprised it's a christmas card! Yes, I am. Wasnt it about 2 months ago when you made a card that wasnt a christmas card? I thought for sure you'd have all your 60 cards done way before now. Geez, just another christmas card in the life of a fruitcake, I see. Those pearls from Wattle are wonderful arent they? Oh, so pretty. You're on a roll with this one, do you suppose we could se another Christmas card tomorrow?
