Regal Christmas Card

I had the day off today, and did a little work around the house, caught up on paperwork, and made some cards.  This is a card I made for a couple of challenges:

   Sketch challenge - Christmas or oriental is the optional extra  -  This is the sketch:

I like the sketch, and love the color combination called for, and knew right away which stamps I was going to use.  I have this clear set from Printworks, and it is so regal, that I thought it would be perfect for these colors.
Here's the card:

On a personal note, thank you to everyone for all your notes, calls, and emails about my beloved Lissie.  She was a precious, loving kitty, and will be missed by us, and by our dear friends.

Enjoy this lovely, crazy New York weather!!!!

Blessings and peace,
