Sponging Christmas Card

Front of Card and Matching Envelope
Howdy Crafters - I created this card after getting inspired by Brenda - click HERE
I did not have all of her supplies and I do not have the sponges she used, but I am still happy with how my creation turned out - I did the inside of the card, as well as a matching envelope. Love doing this technique!!
Thank you for dropping by and have a blessed week - Gail !
