Christmas Cardinal

Can you believe that seven weeks from today, Christmas will once

again just be a memory, hopefully a happy one for you all.

In a previous post I told you that one of my favourite flowers are poinsettias,

so today I have another card featuring a poinsettia and some more beautiful

paper from a Kaisercraft 6 x 6 pad I bought last year.

I cannot figure out why colours, particularly reds, do not photograph

and/or reproduce 'true'. This close-up of my poinsettia was photographed

at the same time as the picture of the front of my card (above)! The 

deep red colour of that photograph is the more accurate.

Inside the card is fairly simple.
