I hope you have had a nice and relaxing Christmas. After couple of days of lying on the sofa, watching TV, eating, and reading, it is nice to grab again your paper crafting supplies and get creative, right?

I’m sure many of you are visiting your friends on New Year’s evening. I’m also sure your friends would love to get a hand-made greeting card with your hand written new year’s wishes. This one is quick and easy to make – just follow these simple steps:
