A Happy Hanukkah to everyone! I have had several Jewish friends at different times in my life and have always admired them. So here is a card to celebrate Hanukkah. It does involve a bit of cutting out by hand, but I like the effect of the different layers. It is an easy image to cut out. You can admire the intricate design of the stamped and embossed image as you trim the different parts out.
