Happy New Year's Eve!

Hi Guys-

It's New Year's Eve.  Hope you all have wonderful and safe plans for tonight.  I will be picking up the Chinese food in a little while and later on, heading to be with friends.  But I'll probably come home early so I don't have to drive after midnight.  I know, I'm a whimp!

This season has been busy and I've made a lot of holiday cards.  But the one I'm going to show you today is a little unusual.  I had to make an apology as I forgot one gift and the person's feelings were hurt.  I felt terrible so I made a holiday themed card and wrote my apology and included the gift.



The card is red card stock cut to fit a 4 1/4x 5 1/2 envelope.  I eyeball my cuts instead of measuring.  The border is a new Martha Stewart punch I got for Christmas.  The striped paper is from this year's gcd Studios "sacdia jul" card stack.  The silver paper (the picture doesn't do it justice) is from last year's DCWV Christmas & Winter Combo card stack.  The ribbon is generic red grosgrain, and the button is a specialty that I had left over.  The sentiment is on Cricut's "Stamping" cartridge.  I cut the words at 3/4 inch in white and cut the shadow in green.  The cute deer was cut from Cricut's "Create a Critter" on page 69 cut at 2 1/2 inches.

Have fun creating!
Linda :)
