Season's Greetings...

Hello everyone!

Hope you are all busy with Life and Christmas and Hanukkah and Pongal and whatever else you celebrate. Thanks to everyone who took the time out to send me a hand made card or write a note saying Merry Christmas.

None of the cards I designed were easy to mass produce and hence didn't get mass produced or mailed :-(

Here is my greetings to you. You don't have to worry about keeping it or throwing it. It is here when you want to look at it. It is not when you don't want it in your face. No recycling or re-using needed.


I bought the wide ribbon from Michaels with this purpose in mind. He he. Cut out another flower from the same ribbon and popped it on top to match. Liquid glass and some glue dots to the rescue for gluing the ribbon down.

Here is the inside of the card designed using GIMP (idea from BlueMountain greetings).

You make the most original things from the most original things. This is so sweet! I love that you used GIMP. I have it but still have to figure out how to use it. You are so tech-savvy! Hugs, :O) Mel
