HAPPY NEW YEAR 2010

A “Happy New Year” card. I cut a strip off the front of the card before punching with the eyelet border punch so that the bottom layer of card would be visible when card is closed. I sponged the edges of the border with Bashful Blue as well as Garden Green and finished the card […]
