Christmas Cards All Year 'Round

Warning: This post may contain Christmas cards!
 
Over at CCAYR this month,
the challenge is:
 
Hearts & Flowers Red & White.
Seeing this is Valentine's month we want to see a red and white Christmas card incorporating hearts and flowers.
 
Here's mine.......
 
 
I started out making 6, then couldn't get the cut fold right! hahahaha
I think these are gate fold cards!
There are 4 that turned out!
 
I hesitated about putting a sentiment on the front.......
yesnoyesnoyesno.......
I decided NO, and put this on the inside!

 
I thought the word "LOVE" should be there somewhere...
this being February, with Valentines Day & all!
Keeping with the red & white & hearts & flowers!
 
Enjoy!
Welcome Amy!
You probably won't learn anything here, but you might get a laugh or 2!
 
Talk to ya later!
Ta ta for now!

  6. Thanks for the warning, but I didn't heed it. . .I'd enjoy the card more if it were DECEMBER! LOL I went to Joanne Fabrics last week and saw that they had bunches of Christmas crap still out at 90% off and I wanted to puke when I saw it. . .Hope you are staying safe and warm! Hugs, Curt

  9. What a wonderful card - and you really got going, making four of them! I can't wait to get back to crafting, too... Back in Germany at -2°C and some snow. I admit: after the 33°C at 6pm last night, it wasn't easy to deal with. But I'm positive I will soon adjust ;-)
