Christmas Love, Hope, Peace, and Joy!

This Christmas card is a simple one, using some of my oldest Christmas paper stash, and basically just making several layers to add more color and to liven it up.  I used several patterned papers from a complimentary paper line and cut some of the Christmas trees from the background paper to form the tree embellishments popped off the sentiment block.  This was a very easy card to make, but I think it turned out nice.  I should try to make "simple" more often, especially when I'm under a time crunch!



Following is a look at my card's interior, which was created to compliment the front design.  I composed my verse, using my computer.  I chose the Amatic font for the verse, and Chopin for Merry Christmas.
