Christmas Leaflet Photo Card

Inspired by the fiery beauty of the poinsettia (Euphorbia pulcherrima), this Christmas leaflet photo card highlights many of its distinguished features: brilliant crimson hue, star-shaped “blossoms,” and clean architectural lines.

Designed with the busy holiday season in mind, this card offers simplicity and versatility in construct, without compromising in aesthetic. The deep burgundy color creates a receding backdrop to compliment 3.5 x 5 inch family portraits, baby pictures, or any other holiday photographs. Along the four sides are petal-like extensions, when folded, seals the photograph and transforms the card into an envelope in one easy step. In lieu of a photo, the inside rectangular area offers a generous space to pen a message to the recipient(s), as well. Dangling ornaments and sparkling stars add the finishing touches of the holiday spirit to the overall design.

I hope this stirs your inner creativity and inspires you to send out some season’s greetings.
