JOY...

Happy Monday everyone... I hope you all are recovering from the long weekend. Remember I told you we had decided to go to a restaurant to eat?... well, let's just say it was NOT a dinner to remember. We have decided to cook next year.. LOL Hey, you got to try new things.. Right? It just happened to be the wrong choice. haha

We are starting this new week with Christmas on the brain.. right? With all the sales, I mean wow the sales. Lots of stuff to buy but really my husband and I don't need anything but bought a few things we do not need. LOL 

I already got one of the purchases I made and that was from The Greetery. I ordered there Four Square Holiday Tag Elements with the coordinating die and received this amazing free gift and that is what you are seeing today. It was a stencil with an ornament die. I just had to ink it up right away and share it with you all. 

Create card from white cardstock A2 size.

Cut a piece of emerald green cardstock A2 size and adhere it to your card base. 

Cut another white panel measuring 4 x 5 1/4 and stencil this amazing JOY stencil. I used Pinkfresh Studio inks Lush Forest, Candy Violet, Sparkling Rose, Eucalyptus, Berrylicious and Aquamarine. I know it does not seem like I used all these colors but I did. I just blended them and layering them to create these fun colors. 

Die cut the ornament on white glitter cardstock and trim just the center of the ornament and adhere it to the card where the ornament is. Die cut the ornament again on that same emerald green cardstock and then adhere just the bow to the card and then adhere the white glittered bow on top of that. 

Now it is time to add some bling. I used Spellbinders Color Essentials Gems, which I totally need more of. They really do add a lot of shine to the card.  I also added a misc. glittered enamel dot to the center of the ornament. 

Adhere the panel to the center of the card base and you are done. 

Now remember this was a free gift with purchase so I do not know if they will sell it. BUT don't you just love it? They really do have the most beautiful designs. 

Thank you for stopping by.

Have a wonderful week and don't spend too much money... LOL
