This will be our 2023 Christmas card. I am reluctant to change much but welcome suggestions from you seasoned scrappers. Thanks, Clive  |

In text - Fortunate children. Needs space between words
I’d like to see more of your photos scattered around bottom edge with the stockings. No matter what, I think the bird photo should be smaller as well as the stocking photo. Seems too large in relation to other items on page. Maybe three smaller photos in left corner. The photos can be put on the garland. Overlapping is fine.
The photo of the two of you is just the right size and position.
I like the garland in the corners and the outlining. If needed to make room for more photos, the garland could be made a little smaller.

In text - Fortunate children. Needs space between words Thanks. Good eye! OMG, how did we miss that? I’d like to see more of your photos scattered around bottom edge with the stockings. No matter what, I think the bird photo should be smaller as well as the stocking photo. Seems too large in relation to other items on page. Maybe three smaller photos in left corner. The photos can be put on the garland. Overlapping is fine. Good idea. I selected about a dozen candidate photos. I'll try that. I like the garland in the corners and the outlining. If needed to make room for more photos, the garland could be made a little smaller. Will play with that. Thanks Janice!!!  |

Your welcome. But really, you are the only one (and the Mrs. of course) who has to like the work. We are all coming at it from our own ideas, which will be different from yours. But, then again, I really miss that you don’t have more of your wonderful photos on the page. 😉

Love the background of the northern lights, what a busy and productive year you've both had, to the benefit of many less fortunate.
Merry Christmas to you both.

cats4janThanks for your ideas Janice...much appreciated. Here is what I came up with. Instead of reducing the size of the lower garland, I merely placed four small images on top. Comments welcome.

Love the background of the northern lights, Thanks Jackie. I am pleased that the lights were obvious. The background colours are pleasing. |

That looks great. I’m glad you added more of your photos. It’s a big part of your year and that’s what a newsletter is all about
