LOVE this card. First view of it instantly reminded me of the stable in which baby Jesus was born on that Holy Night so many years ago. The barnwood theme works so perfectly here. And it’s a quick make with the die cut snowflake negatives and simple sentiment. Take a look:

I find this so striking and appealing!

I simply adore that barnwood theme.

Here’s a closer look at the negative die cuts of the snowflakes.

A darker brown paper behind them shows them off just beautifully!

Take a peek at Holly’s coordinated inside – lovely, as always.

You can find Holly’s post on her blog here.
