Welcome back to the Merry Monday Challenge!
It was nice to take a summer break, hope you all enjoyed the time off and are ready to get back to making those Christmas cards
Marcia is our host this week and she is asking us to use the word JOY on our Christmas card.
I had this sentiment with the joy, but thought I would change it up and add the die cut out of gold glitter paper to make it more festive.
I white embossed a background stamp from Rubbernecker Stamps called Snowflake Frame, then I used a little blue water color to highlight the flakes.
To add a little more dimension I die cut some Li'l Inkers Snowflake dies out of vellum, adhered them then added some PPP sequins.
Be sure to check out the cards from the DT, they are pretty amazing and should inspire you!
Thanks for stopping by!
Heart Hugs, friends!

Joy is such a wonderful word to use on a Christmas card and yours is so pretty and sparkly. The background is lovely and the extra snowflakes are a great addition. Stay cool, your heat is terrible. We have had so many fall days of 50's in the am and 60's during the day.
Stunning embossed frame for that beautiful sentiment, Colleen! Just love the glittery JOY!!
