This could make a neat holiday card or a neat guy card!

 Which card do you like better?

THIS OR THAT?

THIS- the colored 'winter greetings' one?

OR

THAT- the 'thinking of you' one?

 

This is one of the cards that everyone joining me at my October

By leaving it this way I can still put it all back together 

& use as one big background stamp.
