Season of Joy

This is a Season of Joy don’t you think? And here is a card that I received in a swap earlier this year from Heidi Andrist, a fellow demonstrator. I love the way she combined the Season of Joy stamp set along with Perfect Punches Stamp Set for the greeting.

It has been rainy and overcast here a lot this past couple of weeks so I thought I would try out the photo box that my husband put together for me. You’ll have to let me know how you like it and if you think it is better than my microwave stand. That being said, I do think I need to try different light bulb combinations to get a cleaner brighter look.

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Season of Joy, Perfect Punches

Inks: Cherry Cobbler, Always Artichoke and River Rock

Paper: Cherry Cobbler, Always Artichoke, River Rock, and Very Vanilla

Accessories: Big Shot, Top Note Die, Scallop Circle Punch and 1 3/8″ Circle Punch

It’s the Season of Joy, that special time of year when we celebrate Christ. Here is a card that I designed using the Wax Paper Resist technique that we did in November’s Stamp Club meeting.

I used the Season of Joy stamp set since it coordinated with our Petals-a-Plenty Embossing Folder for the Big Shot. After all, you see poinsettias everywhere this time of year. My son grew some in his green house class last year and brought one home that was beautiful. He was full of interesting facts about them that I wasn’t aware of, but then I have a brown thumb.

I love the way this card turned out, my family however liked my other design better. I’ll try and post the one I ended up using later so you can see which one you like better.
