JOY......



Here's another Christmas card.......I'm stepping things up in the Christmas department do you think?  I've stamped the larger Christmas tree from Waltzingmouse's 'Nutcracker Sweet' onto a piece of Kraft and clear embossed it for this one.  With just a hint of colour and some bling!  The musical notes are from another WMS set called 'Musical Backgrounds' and these were stamped onto Kraft, clear embossed and then sponged with VersaMagic Cloud White chalk ink.  Some satin ribbon from Annabelle Stamps, a couple of buttons dressed with tea dyed string and the little sentiment tag cut from a Spellbinder die complete this card.   

I'm entering this Christmas card into the Moxie Fab Jolly Holly Greetings Challenge.

Thanks for calling past and have a great day.........
