Joy by Penny Ward
Hello, hello. Penny here today with lots of sparkle. Nothing makes me happier than shiny cardstock. Pretty papers and a couple of new dies from the Holiday Collection and you have yourself a fancy shamcy card to send to a favorite friend. This is the final day of our Blog Blitz, so make sure you have checked out all of the designers creations this past week and get your comments in by midnight tonight.
And here we go:
Start with a White card base measuring 5 3/4 x 5 3/4 inches. Cut Green Mirrored cardstock the same size and adhere.
Die cut Elegant Holly Double Frame and Joy Circle from Green Matte Metallic cardstock. Take the inner frame and snip around each edge as shown above.
Trim Ice Blue Glitter cardstock just a bit smaller than card front and adhere.
Now starting adding your frames. Large one in the center and the snipped ones at the corners.
Add the Joy Circle and the extra Holly as shown.
Add Red Crystal Drops for the berries. (Try to do a better job than I did) :)
I am giving away the Elegant Holly Double Frame to one lucky person who comments on my post by midnight tonight. Look for a list of winners tomorrow.
Happy Holiday Crafting,
Supplies

So pretty and I love how you extended the Holly Frame into the corners. The green mirror cardstock is perfect to draw your eyes to the holly details! I also love the pop of red with your crystal drops!

Very creative use of the frame to make the delicate corners. The shiny paper sets it all off beautifully. And the red crystal drops were just fine!

Lovely card. I agree shiny and sparkly are a must for the holidays. I like that the Elegant Holly Double Frame has lots of options.

So elegant with the mirrored cardstock! Gorgeous card!

Oh boy! This is my favorite of all the posts. Just beautiful.......thought about saying it is "simple and beautiful" but I know getting all those little holly leaves stuck to glitter paper is not an easy task. The green mirror card stock and red berries with the "joy" circle definitely say "Christmas." Love it!
