Warmest Wishes ... Merry Christmas

Muse:  Christmas Visions 17

For this week's inspiration Kristie provided us with a very warm-feeling holiday card.  For my card those inspirations translated to use of her colors and black under the pierced panel, star (I "winked" the star in lieu of rhinestone gems), line embossed the card front (about 1/4 inch from the edge) and stamped and embossed a collage of Christmas sentiments as the main image (the MISTI worked wonders for aligning/stamping the sentiments).  The red star, green enamel dot and green and red fishtail flags added just a touch of seasonal color.  This time I used a 5-inch square card base that seemed to work better for the size of the main image instead of the A2 size. 

Thank you for looking and commenting ... your feedback is appreciated.
