Below is the remake using the cutout...This character means wealth but it doesn't necessarily mean $$$. Could be love, peace , joy and good health too!

Recycling...
Here's the old Chinese New Year card found in my stash.
For my non-Asian friends, above are some red packets which we used to put money as gifts to children, parents and to anyone we wish to bless. I used them to make the flowers and fire crackers as embellishments for this card. See below. Black is not a good color for auspicious occasions for the Chinese. But... we are in the 21st century!!! So ... I like the modern colors here:)
Lunar New Year
This is not in the traditional auspicious red as most old folks would like;)
Notice the calligraphy in the insert? I wrote it myself. I had to practise about twenty times before venturing to put it on the card. It means May everything be smooth sailing for you in 2013.
Gong Xi Fa Chai- Happy New Year 2013
