Seasons Greetings to Everyone

I used a gift box to scan the pretty design of the poinsettia and used a simple black background to start the fun. I took pictures of a bunch of earrings I'm getting rid of and used as hook ups or embies. Borrowed some goodies from the good folks at SBM..Angelwithin..gold sheet, MA3 snowflake on tree for pin down, red jewel from squeak, the snowflake in background was donated by someone on the site but didn't list who (sorry), and the bow, upper corners, lace trim, are what I made this month. The tag is from carol's goodies. And the rest are SBM. Used the ornament shape and christmas tree shapers for picture backings. Family members belong to me!! Taken and created this CHristmas 2006 season.
