I don't do a lot of cards celebrating the New Year but the image options in the two sets (which are new releases) are so versatile they can be used for nearly any celebration. I chose the hour glass from the New Year's Eve 3231J set because I can also imagine it on a birthday card with a sentiment about "Is time running out?" or something silly like that. :-D But this particular card is definitely for the New Year, as you can see from the sentiment which can be found in the Happy New Year 3030J set.
This card was CAS and so quick to make. It took me less than 15 minutes because I used the pre-colored image.
Pre-colored image (I wanted you all to see the incredible wood grain that's in the pre-colored image, but not on the black and white outline images.)
