Yep so this is the final product. I decided to do a simple Christmas card. I used the gumball machine tutorial to create my ornaments. I also used the christmas tree tutorial. I personally wasn't too crazy about the reeth, but I tried to make the best out of it. I absolutely LOVED the quote and found it necessary to include a black bird. :) I used a gradient as my pattern instead of making one. That's pretty much it.

I chose to do something simple, yet graceful. I more than definitely wanted to use my initials, but I got inspired to overlap them on top of each other from an example I saw. I decided to add the name of my company under my logo because I want the customer to know who is working for them. :)
