Ornament Card
I needed to make 12 cards for staff and carers at the assisted living facility where my MIL is staying. Thought it would be fun to make a card that could have an ornament as part of the card. As they are more French speakers than English, I used the lovely simple "Noel" sentiment.

A Quiet Peaceful Christmas
I finally got round to making a card with the wonderful Holy Nights die set of Concord & 9th. Used soft colours to convey peace, stillness ... a Holy night.
I'm not actually sending this card - I've put it up as a decoration. The colours just happen to match the delphiniums and pink flowers which I was so excited to find in Mauritius for the first time today. If anyone knows what those pink flowers are called, I would love to know. They are so soft and pretty and I have no idea what they are.
I wish you all a very Merry Christmas. May you be showered with the blessings of peace, the beauty of hope, the spirit of love and the comfort of faith.
I leave you with this delightful recounting of the Christmas story by kids.
I'll enter it to CAS-ual Fridays Challenge : Christmas /Hanukkah

A Gift for You
I'm combining a number of challenges ... to make this card.
I think this one needed something, and you can't go wrong with some bling. Added Frosted Lace Stickles.

... CASology : Bow Challenge
... Addicted to Stamps and More : CAS Challenge
... Muse Challenge #196 ... where I focused on using one red object with a black sentiment.
As I needed to die cut 3 times to make the card I wanted, I mixed up the combinations and made another 2. Yay ... TWO bonus cards!

I was given some lovely sparkly die cuts by LaVon ... and very timely, to go with the current Fusion Card Challenge.
I was inspired by the glittery reindeer in the green branches.
