A clean and simple Christmas card and an ammended announcement

Before I get started, I wanted to say that I never heard from the winner of my Hero Arts clear stamps giveaway, so I did the random.org thing and the new winner is Paula (PEP).  I've already been in touch with her, and will be sending out the set early next week.  Congratulations, Paula!

Here is my first Christmas card of the season, one I may very well reproduce in many forms, just changing up the ink color and perhaps the sentiment, although this beautiful font seems a very good pairing with the lovely image....both are from my newest stamps from Hero Arts.

    It really is such a lovely image and it would be easy to mass produce for lots of cards. It speaks for itself with its beauty! Love it, Lin!

    I love the stylishness of this & how that single star gem really catches the eye. The detailed stamping is beautiful too, especially with the all the shading & I have to agree that the font of the sentiment is very apt indeed for the classic image.
    Thank you so much for the stamp set too. I'm looking forward to it & shall let you know of its safe arrival.
    Hope you have a good Thanksgiving celebration.
