Christmas: Candles over snow flurry

I had intended to make more cards with this set, but I ended up not needing to. It will definitely get used for some birthday cards though (and there’s always next Christmas)…

Last year my mum asked me to make a card for her to give to her brother — he always gets her cards that say sister on them, but she can never find brother ones that she likes — so I thought I’d be preemptive and make one for her… Of course, that just meant that she found a card this year! But crafters are nothing if not resourceful and we hate wasting hard work, so, with a little bit of card surgery, this was turned into a Mother card for my other half’s mum.
