A truly special Christmas card

 


We have a friend, really more of an acquaintance (we are close friends with his mom) who never fails to send us a Christmas card.  And it's always a special one.  

Some of these cards I have never seen in stores, though I assume perhaps he finds them in a Hallmark store.   The cards have always been wonderful, but this one may be my favorite, because it includes actual needlework.  

The saying "Faith is at the Heart of the Holidays" is machine-embroidered on felt in the center of this design.  It is then surrounded by stitched poinsettias (I think), holly and other greenery, and red and pink berries.  

The embroidered design is set off by an actual wood frame, albeit a very thin one.  

Have you ever seen a card like this?  I think it's just beautiful.
