I did this for my friend
Judy and used one of her
favorite poems by Emily
Dickinson. The prominent
calligraphy is the most
known verse of the poem
but I also incorporated
verses two and three.
I used gouache, acrylics,
brushes, sponges and
calligraphy pens.

I don't think I've done my own card for several years now. I'm usually so busy with work this time of year that I don't make the time to do one. I was determined to make one this year! It's a letter pressed card. Best wishes to you for a wonderful holiday and happy, healthy new year!

This year I had fun using a couple of different envelopes. I love the polka dot, and the white on that deep red is a favorite of mine.
