Create Joy Christmas Holidays Pine Tree Ornament Invitation

Joy. We need it in our lives, and finding it in small things can create hope on even the darkest days. On a chilly cloudy rainy dreary Southern California December day several years ago, someone placed a lone red ornament on a young pine tree in a park, giving me a little bit of joy on that otherwise grey and gloomy day. Reminiscent of Charlie Brown's Christmas tree, the single red ornament is a reminder that each of us has the power to create joy everywhere and anywhere we are. Design description: A black and white photograph, filled with the low-contrast grey tones of a cloudy day, of a young pine tree with only a few branches and a few needles. On a lower branch, there is a single red holiday ornament, a simple red ball, providing a bit of colour in an otherwise grey and dull landscape. On the left side of the tree's trunk, at about the level of the ornament, is the word, "Create." On the other side, at about the same level, is the word "Joy," both words in a red serif font.
