The theme this month was a winter celebration other than Christmas. I wanted to do something a bit different for me, so I asked an Indian friend of mine what they celebrate around this time of year. Well, now having done a bit of (very interesting) research, they celebrate alot of things all year round but next week is Dawali - Festival of Lights. That sounded pretty good to me so here is my contribution - it probably isn't ornate enough but didn't really have a lot of time to fine tune it.

Cardstock - PTI White; Bazzill Basics Velvet; Canson Gold
