Masculine Winter Card Part 2
Hi Christine here! I again needed a masculine card for my husband, so I decided to use the lovely Snowy Village stamp set again as it reminds of the village he grew up in- a very small town in Germany that has several houses surrounding a church at the very center of the village. Since Christmas is now over, I decided to make it a "Celebrate the Season" card and decided to pair the Season's Greetings stamp set with the Snowy Village stamp set.
