Card: We Wish You a Merry Christmas

I'm linking this card to the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge where the challenge this week is to use a stamp.  This stamp is a cool vintage image by Stampington & Company! Gee, could I use the word "stamp" any more in just 2 sentences?! :D  In order to get the thin brown cardstock mat around the stamped image and the holly print I glued the die cuts to the cardstock then fussy cut around them.  The white paper doily was misted with  Lindy's Stamp Gang Burnished Brass Moonshadow Mist.

Card: Mojo Monday 323 - Joy

This Christmas card uses this week's Mojo Monday sketch.

The paper is from the Teresa Collins Noel Collection and the cardstock is DCWV; all were inked with Vintage Photo Distress ink.   I fussy cut the holly from the "Definitions" paper and layered it to add some nice depth and embossed the cardstock with Cuttlebug's Holly Ribbons embossing folder.  The "Joy" stamp is from the BasicGrey Aspen stamp set, the ribbon is Hug Snug, and the gem brad is My Mind's Eye Lush Red.  Though you can't see it in the photo, the entire card was finished up with Tattered Angels Iridescent Gold Glimmer Mist.
