I let my Joyous Noel Designer Series Paper and my upline, Mary Deatherage, do most of the work for me!
My card base is Tranquil Tide with a mat of Copper Foil. I took a piece of the Joyous Noel DSP and cut it into six pieces. All measurements are listed below.
I die cut the three Copper Foil sprigs and two Merry Merlot sprigs with a die from Frosted Bouquet Framelits Dies. I made a Billie Moan/Mary Deatherage bow out of Linen Thread and it's the first one I've done that I was happy with. It is adhered to a heart from the Corrugated Elements with a glue dot and that is adhered to a Pearlized Doily. Then I glued everything else in place to finish the card front.
For the inside of the card I just cut two mats and stamped the sentiment in Tranquil Tide using a stamp from Night in Bethlehem.
Thank you for stopping by and I'm very late getting this posted because we were at the hospital most of the morning for a test which should have taken no more than half an hour. But I'm sure you know how that goes!

DeleteWe DO know how that goes. Hurry up and wait! :( But - your card was WORTH the wait! Simply gorgeous!! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mary. I'm glad I did you proud! The hurry up and wait was because someone didn't do their job properly at the cancer center. The hospital staff was great about getting things straightened out! This is the second time it's happened.
