Christmas card

I should really catch up on making Christmas cards.  Look, it is almost Halloween!  I donate Christmas cards every year and I also give out stacks to some of my friends and relatives so they can in turn give to their friends and relatives.  Sometimes during Christmas visits it is fun to see my card given to one friend has landed in another friend's place.  LOL.

I used to make card sets where the cards given to the same friend/relative carry the same theme, patterned paper or the like, but this year I am doing something different.  For one reason I have got a lot of Christmas goodies (Thanks to the Close to My Heart Holidays From the Heart Gift Guide) and I have a tremendous volume of supplies to work with, and second, the cards go to different people anyway, the recipient does not know how other cards from the sender look like, so why bother making a set?

Having said that, because of the time crunch, I may have to make some cards that are truly easy to replicate. They could be given to different people, so no one will really notice that.  Shhhh....  I was really trying to use the Memory Box dies I bought a while back and I think this could be one of those that I'll replicate:

It is simple but elegant.  Some friends told me that a card like this is itself a small decoration on the mantle.  Great!

My card is entering the following challenges:
