Cute holiday card with the different plaids. The white oval die cut makes a great background for the focal image. Thanks for sharing with A Cut Above's May Challenge.

Hi, Donna! Your darling "Woofer" climbing to the top of his presents is DARLING. Taking the time to paper piece each present is not only a fantastic design idea, but brings about a beautiful cohesive and warm feeling! I admire that you took the time to stamp each one individually, cut them out so carefully, and heat emboss your sentiment in rich gold! hugs, de
