CHRISTMAS JOY
Sending Christmas Joy
The perfect card design for a sister who shares my memories of skating together, years ago. Oh, the hours we'd spend on the ice until our toes were frozen! (Click pictures for close-up.)

| Figure Skates, Shimmery Gold accents, Snowflakes and Greenery |
Details
This card is a generous size: card base measures 4-1/4" x 6-1/2". It is thick with layers and needed to be mailed in a protective, puffy envelope to protect the skates.
Everything was created in Cricut Design Space EXCEPT for the punched pine branches. See list of cartridges below.

JOY To You At Christmas
Christmas & Music
Christmas and music just naturally go together. This is probably my favourite Christmas Card. A lot went into it as you will notice. The recipient was my very musical daughter so I used an actual excerpt of the music from "Joy To The World".
The large alphabet letters are from the Alphalicious cartridge. For the "O" I created a wreath from punched, overlapped branches. I also used a lot of gold gilding on the edges and lightly sponged over the music.
Inside
I created the verse on my computer, then gilded the edges with gold and added some punched evergreen branches.
