Good morning!
Winter's Eve New Release
Don't you just love these wonderful colors! Such beautiful papers in this collection and they also coordinate with the Festive Holly Collection, yippee!
So this card is basically a gate fold card made fancy with Heartfelt's beautiful Decorative Medallion die from the Wedding Collection...I love how you can mix and match several Heartfelt collections together! This card was inspired by Emma Lou's video where she shows how to make these wonderful gate "doors". I did mine a bit wrong (all one piece) but it turned out well anyway!

For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Luke 2:10-14
10 Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. 11 For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. 12 And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger.”
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying:

Robin - gorgeous. So many details and elements - these type of cards are little gifts in themselves and must take ages to make - another great job. Love the glow of the fire and the way the burgundy sets off the white.
Wow, wow, wow Robin...this is absolutely gorgeous!!!
