INAS #72 Christmas With No Image

Good Morning,

 We have a new challenge over at International Art & Soul - Challenge #72 "Christmas With No Image".  I had this challenge in mind last summer when Simon Says Stamps had a sale, I scooped up this Spellbinders Die.  Joy Etched Die.

 Here is my card:

This was very fun to make.  I used Spellbinders "Create A Card" for the red and green background, then I used a Spellbinders "Shapeabilities" for the lacy background then the Spellbinders "Joy".  I used gold metallic for the word Joy and then everything else is cut out of glitter paper.  I put gold bling on the flowers.

 Here is a close up of the die:


So I have some other news.  I am having surgery on November 26th and may be away from my blog for awhile. They are telling me I will spend at least 4 days in the recliner before I can get up and move around.  I will be back as soon as possible!  I'll try to stop by to visit all of my bloggy friends while I am recuperating.  I want to wish my USA friends a very blessed Thanksgiving.

 I am entering this card into the following challenges:

 Ellibelle's Corner - Christmas/Holidays
Double D Challenges - "What's Your Christmas Style?" Mine is Traditional 


Thank you so much for stopping by, I hope to see you soon!  Please stop by International Art & Soul to see what my design team sisters have made and then play along with us!  It's always fun!

    So pretty! I love the elegant "JOY" word! Wonderful way to step outside the box on a holiday card!
