This card is totally different to my original ‘mind’s eye’ design, but sometimes when the brights take you, ya just gotta go with it. And I’m so proud of myself, I made my own paper bow!


From here you are heading to the Scrapbook Boutique Blog, thanks for joining us, it’s been heaps of fun!

Love the chrissy colours.
What an awesome bow, love your card, always love your beautiful cards <3
wonderful card, I love it
Beautiful Chrissy card…..that red how is delish!
I love your tall skinny cards, but I wonder about the actual dimensions of these type of cards (also the frog card from a few days ago), do you use a particular “standard” size envelope for these (or do you make your own)? Thanks!
Hi Laura,
Thanks so much for you comment, mostly I just ‘eyeball’ the card size (sometimes to suit the stamp) but 15cm X 8cm (roughly 5 3/4″ X 3 1/4″ ) always looks nice.
I do just use a standard envelope and I’ve never had anyone complain. It would look nice though to make a perfectly fitted one but our post office gets all weird sometimes and want to charge more if it’s not standard. There is a trick that you can do to modify a standard envelope, I’ve seen it on Youtube but not tried it myself as yet. It looks easy enough… maybe one day when I have some ‘spare’ time lol.
Hope this is helpful, Hugs

Fab card Therese. I really like the white embossing. It really pops. I should try that – I say that alot! 🙂
This is so cute and classy Therese. I love that bow.
I love that you chose a tall/skinny card for this card! Such a pretty wreath, and your bow is fabulous!!!
Another stunning beauty Therese and I love your bow too – hugs:) xx
Oh my Therese, that sure is a stunning card. The shade of green is wonderful and I love the simplicity of the wreath – lets face it, I love all of it.

What an amazingly bright and funky card. It really pops. I have this stamp so I’m onto it. Thanks for inspiration. xo

This is so pretty, the white wreath beautifully pops over the green BG !
Gorgeous card Therese, love the white wreath on the green, it’s a nice twist, Cathy x
