Festive Christmas Card


Hello!  Sharing a Christmas card using traditional colors today.  I was inspired by the Muse Christmas Visions challenge to use my Joy to the World sentiment stamp and die from Papertrey ink for my card (Wonderful Words: Joy Mini Stamp Set).   Betty Wright created a beautiful card for the Muse inspiration.  For my card I stamped the background using papertrey ink stamps (Make It Market:Tinsel and Tags) and sponged around the edge with gold Delicata ink.  I also applied Delicata ink to the Joy diecut than clear embossed it.
The beautiful card bellow is the inspriation for the Muse Challenge by Betty Wright

 
I also wanted to participate in this months Papertrey Ink Blog Hop.  The inspiration photo shows such  festive traditional colours.  The old fashioned ornaments in the photo remind me of my Grandmas Christmas decorations, I think she has one very similar to the red and white ball.

  8. Betty's card is stunning and your inspiration from it is wonderful, too! I love the gold tipped corners and how you colored the die-cut with Delicata (such a great ink). Such a festive card.
