I have two last cards to share with you today! Bur first, if you are following along in the blog hop, you should have come from Jeanne Jachna's blog! Hasn't she impressed you with her work this week? What a joy to have her joining us! If you'd like to start at the beginning of the hop, visit Laura's blog.
This card combines some other previously released products with the new "joy" die. I used the Starry Sky Die to cut the stars in the Flags & Tags Banner die. I also used the Spot On circle stamps with the Connected Circle Die to create a traditional Christmas colored banner. The "joy" is cut with glitter paper (of course!). To add a little more sparkle, I tied some Gold Shimmer twine from The Twinery around the middle.
This last card is way outside of my normal. I don't usually use these colors but I was going for a more vintage look for this one. I stamped several of the images from the Jolly & Joyful Sentiments set onto my patterned cardstock. I embossed the sentiment, from Instant Camera Christmas, in gold. The large Jingle Bell die was die cut and hung with shimmer twiner from The Twinery.
