JOY

When I received my swap cards in the mail from Corie, there was one color combo that really caught my eye. It was a Christmas card that featured Soft Sky, Pretty In Pink, and Basic Black. I loved the way the soft colors looked together on a Christmas card, so I decided to use it for my All About Alphas stamp camp. Only I substituted Wild Wasabi for the Basic Black - it was hard enough stamping green snowflakes, I don't think I could have brought myself to stamping black ones!!!

"J" and "Y" is from the Big Deal alphabet set and is stamped in Soft Sky. The "O" is actually a snowflake image from the Snow Burst stamp set. Its stamped with a Pretty In Pink Craft Pad and is embossed with Irridescent Ice embossing powder. I punched out the snowflake image with the 1 3/8" Circle punch, layered it on a piece of scalloped Soft Sky, and popped it up with a dimensional. The double-stitched grosgrain was a last minute add - there was just too much empty space on the ends.

Other words that would work for this card - Snow, Noel, Love, Home...can you think of any others?
