I loaded the photos for this card in a collage form so that you could see the various angles. I saw an idea for a sympathy card in this style on Pinterest and knew right away I wanted to use it for the holidays (my next post will show the other version for Halloween)
I used SB dies and a Lori Whitlock cutting file for the poinsettia. Making the flower on my Silhouette was a piece of cake and I was able to size it exactly as I wanted it. I first made this with a blue flower and all white, then I decided I wanted to make one with a red book cover and flower - I love both of them. Definately using some for Christmas cards this year.

M-e-r-c-y!!! Sistah, this has been Kush-a-bella'd to the max! Where to start......the Scripture, the essence of Christmas, and embellished so perfectly! Girl, you are gifted. Love every inch, and pinned too! Lymi

Goodness gracious, Sherry!! You have really been juicing up the mojo - L O V E this!!! Looks as though this card was designed specifically to hold this verse, and these layers have me drooling! Your poinsettia is gorgeous and I love that your card has a stand and coordinated box to display - you are truly a talented artist!!
