Hope

For this card, I used a sketch from Christmas Challenges and it's also for the Holiday challenge from Lovely Hanglar Only. I'm particularly taken with the paper pinecones. I saw some die cut ones being made on tv the other day but didn't want the preprinted look; whilst walking the dogs I had a brainwave, and came up with these using a retro flower punch.
The card also incorporates a pocket on the back of the card for maybe a photo, letter, gift or just a longer greeting.
