Being the 25th of the month, it's time for another blog hop for the Christmas All Year Long Group of our Magnolia-licious Yahoo Group. This is our third blog hop. The aim of the group is to post a Christmas card on the 25th of each month. You can find the list of participants at the Group's blog site here. If you want to start at the beginning of the blog hop, click here to go to Julie's blog.
If you're following this blog hop, you would have come here from Monique's blog. And the next site to visit after me is Patricia's blog.
Here is my March Christmas card.
This is my first time making this type of card--it's called a side step card. I'm still struggling with the measurements and placements of the back panel as I had to make alterations. The template which can be found here is for a finished 4" x 4" card. Mine is a 6" x 6" card.
I'm making this a short posting as I am late with it. Sorry. I was late finishing the card. OMG, I didn't even put any embelishments--that's a rare sight!
Thank you so much for all your visits and your lovely comments. Enjoy your day!
To continue with this blog hop, the next stop is Patricia.
Stamps: Magnolia Tilda with Gifts and Unwrapped Tilda.

Hi Norma,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
Your card is amazing. Each time I see your cards I think they can't get any better and they do. It takes an expert to not cover a card with embellishments. I love, love, love the way you did your background shading. It is awesome and I must try and copy it. The colouring of the two Tilda's is outstanding and very professional.
I adore this card.
Hugs
Marion
Beautiful coloring Norma. Love the background you did on Tilda's frame. It's almost like those background for a photographer studio. Very pretty!
Hugs,
Cabio

What a beautiful card. Love the dp and the background behind the Tildas. The girls are so cute with their presents.
Norma your card doesn't need embellies, its awesome just the way it is. TFS
The map succeeded greatly norma and totally. She pleases me very well and the processing is fantastic. Mad Coloration and conversion. My radix complement.

Gracious we have another "CardARTist" in our midst. Your card is fascinating and I agree with others I don't think you need embellishments it is interesting alone because of the different levels. Fabulous card!!
hugs, Diana
