I have a fondness for Christmas cacti. I have a huge one that is 22 years old. It is 43" across and thinks it is a Thanksgiving Cactus; it always blooms in the last two weeks of November.
I used some of the paper that comes with the set. Here is a pic of some of the images and papers in the set:
Gorgeous !

Wow, fabulous card! Gorgeous clean, crisp design and colors. Loved the photo of your plant...unbelievable!
ReplyDeleteYour "Christmas" cactus made me giggle ... we have one that thinks it's a "Valentines" cactus. Never see blooms before February. Such a pretty card, Marsha. I love your bow. Pretty
ReplyDeleteOh, the coloring... So vivid - very pretty. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Marsha, Amazing card! I am so glad you showed a picture of your cactus. My mother-in-law also has one. She loves her too, but hers blooms right after Christmas - it's old too, just a few steps behind. LOL Great card and love the layout!

ReplyDeleteOutstanding card Marsha. Can you believe we used the same colors and the same designer paper and yet our cards look so completely different? That's what I love about digital stamps.
ReplyDeleteA lovely creation. Thanks for sharing with us at Penny's Paper-Crafty Challenges.
