The very word brings joy to our hearts



I’m sharing a Christmas card today featuring a die from Paper Rose called Stitched Holly.


The inspiration for this card came from Muse: Christmas Visions and the beautiful card made by Chriss Blagrave.  I’ve taken the ‘joy’ word and the flora background as my inspiration as well as the gold outline.  The Kraft background was chosen to fit the current theme at Sparkles Christmas.

I started by printing my sentiment on my laser printer and then foiling it in gold.  I then cut the die shape and used glue to also add a gold outline to the holly and berry.  Keeping with my shaker theme for the year I turned the die cut into a shaker with some acetate and sequins, which means this card also fits the current challenge at Jingle Belles to use something clear.

Although it is very CAS I do love how this turned out.  I am especially enjoying seeing how I can add a shaker element to all my cards in different ways and even in very small elements like the berries.
