Teapot Challenge - In celebration of 700 Challenges: Cross the Street - create a Christmas card for a neighbor and deliver it
Ways to Use it Challenge - Deck the Cards with holly or Christmas foliage or flower
CAS Challenge - Merry & Bright
I had previously made cards for our cul-de-sac neighbors and delivered them with an Arizona Highways 2022 calendar, our gift this year. I was actually early this year and the first one on the street deliver. I did miscount and bought too many calendars. The challenge encouraged me to use extra DSP and sentiment strip left from those cards and to create another neighbor card. I am considering which neighbor beyond our little street to give a calendar and this card.
My card is decked with a simple poinsettia and some leaves. I used shiny gold stickles in the flower center. It looks merry & bright with a CAS layout.
Great challenges! Thank you to the hostesses. TFL

That poinsettia does look fabulous with your CAS design. The strip of plaid dp is the perfect accent. Beautiful Christmas card and what a lovely gift for your neighbors. I can imagine how beautiful the photos in the Arizona Highway calendar must be. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Absolutely gorgeous poinsettia. I like that you stamped in the colors then left it uncolored. That is a great idea and beautifully executed on your card.
