So I thought I'd share with you my HOME themed card creation. When I think of home, I think warmth and coziness! (And with our first SN*W fall... yes... SN*W in September!!!... we needed to cozy up this week!)
And I love the thought of a beautiful holiday wreath hanging on my front door...
Here's a little close up of my wreath! I used a Copic Spica pen to add some red glitter to my wreath's berries...

Hmmmm, I would ask my Dad who is no longer with us. It wouldn't be a house warming with him. Love you card!
Gorgeous card Allison! That wreath is really beautiful!
Such a fabulous xmas card - I love the sentiment.
Would have to be my dear youngest daughter who passed at the tender age of 15...we would line dance at that party!!!!
So loving your beautiful card, Ally!!
Hugs!
Beautiful pine boughs Allison. I admire your work. I would invite my momma who taught me the meaning of home and hospitality.
This is a great Christmas card. I really like the musical note background.
Wonderful wreath and great background!
I love this card, from the music background to the fabulous wreath and beautiful sentiment! Just lovely! Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful wreath. I would invite my grandma. She died a year before my husband was able to meet her.

Beautiful card, Allison! I love the wreath against that music note background!
Beautiful wreath card, Allison. A wreath on the front door is one of the first things I think of too when I think of home.
Beautiful wreath
Love your beautiful card. I would without doubt invite my Mum. Just a few days ago it was 10 years since she passed at the age of 56 and I still miss her so much. How awesome it would be to get to share my daughter Abbey with her and all the things that have been a part of my life since she departed. Best stop there as I think I could write a book :)
This makes me want Christmas! I would invite my dear friends from Minnesota. I don't get to see them anymore as Oklahoma is too far away!
How pretty! I can hardly wait to see one on my door!
If I had a housewarming party next week, I would love my whole family to be here as we are scattered around the US, and I would include all those "friends who became our family" in the 6 cities we've lived in over the last 35 years. LOVE your beautiful wreath card, especially love the music background detail.
That wreath is beautiful! Very pretty card!
It looks antique and gorgeous...
ANY party that I had would include my Father (died in 1997). He was the most influential person in my life, and I was blessed and honored to care for him during his illness before he died. Although we spent a great deal of time together, there are still times when I need to ask him a question - so therefore...one more party, heck, one more hour with him would be magnificent! Ally, thanks so much for having this giveaway - you're so very generous!
Beautiful card! I love that pretty wreath and the pretty music background!
Forgot to day, I would ask my Mom to my house warming party! she i\lives about 8 hours away, and it is hard to travel at her age of 92!
This is a beautiful card! Who would I invite. Hum that would be tough for sure it would be someone that was into crafting and we could possibly sneak off and play a bit. Perhaps I would invite Tim Holtz or Teresa Collins...
Beautiful card! I
would invite my
Mom to my party!
She lives 800 miles
away, so anytime
she can come up is
fun!
Carla from Utah
I love your card, and I would invite my children and grandchildren and great G/child to the party
Stunning card! I would invite my dear uncle for sure :)
Beautiful card Ally. I would invite my Mum cause I miss her.
Gorgeous card! I love the background and the wreath. I would love to invite my Mom and Dad.
Gorgeous card! The coloring is awesome. I would invite my mom who is with us no longer. She would love this cardmaking craft!
Love your card! I would invite my son since I don't see him as often as before!
Love your card Ally! I would invite my Aunt Lorene who is in heaven now. I miss her. Leenda1 at cox dot net
This is so beautiful Ally!
Such a sweet card Ally! Beautifully traditional. I would invite my grandfather on my mother's side (who passed away a month before I was born). I would love to get to know him. He sounds like a wonderful man. Thanks for a chance to win. Hugs, Kristina
I love your card!
Oh, this is simply stunning. The wreath looks SO real and I just adore it - so Christmassy. Oh, I have been close to tears reading the emotional comments others have given with regards to who they would have at their party….I am so fortunate to have both my parents and so I would have them around and appreciate them all the more. I would love to have my Husband's father round though, who I never had the privilege to meet….I would just like to tell him how proud he should be of all his son has achieved…..oh, and now I have just set myself off!!!!!! What a big question you have asked!!!! xxx
I couldn't have ANY party without my best friend. I moved away 6 months ago and miss her a lot. Great card. Love the music background.
I would invite my Mom. She died a few years ago and I can't make a card with out the thought crossing my mind to email her a picture so she can see it. She always told me the best gifts are homemade and from the heart. She was also my very best friend and I am not the same person without her.
Snow in September - yikes!!!! Your card is beautiful! I would invite my Dad who has been dead now 18 years. A day doesn't go by that I don't miss him.
