#52 Redux -- Classic Christmas stripes

Things have been going well with the CHRISTMAS IN JULY promotion -- free worldwide shipping -- and my little envelopes have made their way to quite a few new homes.

Today's offering is a set of bright, cheery Christmas stripes in lime green and red -- classic but playful. These would be great as place cards, gift tags, or party favors.
