Flip over calendar ~ December Poinsettias

Welcome to my Corner of the World

Here we are – December 2022 – where did that year go?

Contempory, Fun Fold Christmas Card Idea

Welcome to my Corner of the World

To add a little seasonal festiveness I have used the pretty Wintry Embossing Folder and some gold ribbon!
