Another card for Carla's WT challenge. I bought this many years ago - back in the day of paper catalogues and old-school mail order. It looks a lot better brought up-to-date with a wider palette of colours for sponging, but back in the day I made all my Christmas cards with this. This particular template is the only smaller one I have - DH queued for me in the craft department of BHV in Paris in the pre-Christmas rush to get it . Greater love hath no man for his wife...
Embossed, turned over and sponged the colour on through the back of the template. Added the sentiment. It's not a little card - just a little note.

To me the old style embossing gives a crisper edge (though that may be a declining-with-age eyesight problem and not the embossing style!) Love the look of this! It's like an old needlework panel. The colours are so bright and cheerful!

Oh Sabrina.. .give DH a hug from me. I love your write up. This is such a pretty card with a very happy feel. The flowers and butterflies look lijje they are dancing right off the page. I was just in the yard with Georgia so she could "do her business" and if you substitute evil black crows for your sweet little birds, this looks like my yard. My flowers are so confused...80 degrees today.
