Joy to the World

I have another simple card that I may be able to duplicate several times for bulk Christmas cards.  I’m kind of trying to decide what I’m going to make.  Maybe I’ll make so many that will be easy to duplicate that I’ll have all my cards done!!!

100_4399I stamped the Hero Arts image/sentiment with Versa Mark ink and embossed with Zing red embossing powder and then cut it out with nesties.  All the paper (except the white) is from the S.E.I. Winter Song stack.  This paper is one of my favorite S.E.I. papers.  I was trying to not spend much money when I was there last week but ended up picking this up at the last minute.  I just couldn’t go home without it!!!

Anyway, back to my card.  I used the MS doily lace punch and added rubies to it.  I also added a few rubies to the stamped image and here and there on the DP.  I tied a bow around it all and bada-bing – all done!!!

It turned out to be a fun yet elegant card, I think!

The challenge at Flourishes is border punches, Tuesday Taggers is bursts of color, La-La Land Crafts is ribbon, and Daring Cardmakers is to use a punch.

That’s it for now.  I’ll probably be back in a bit with something new.  Who know?

Blessings,

Christine
