Joy, Peace

Thought I would post a Christmas card tonight and maybe that will help me get into the spirit of the holidays!  I used Inkadinkado sentiment as my main image.  Lacey circles by spellbinders was use to outline the sentiment.  I also used a piece of cuttlebugged cardstock.  This was a new embossing folder I bought last year and it was still in its wrapper!  I used Jovial pattern paper from Basic Grey.  The white cardstock is from Papertrey Ink and the red riding hood cardstock is from SU.  I embellished with some Hero Arts paper poinsetta, punced out leaves, and added a white pearly brad.

Poinsetta Ornament

I have really neglected the blog this fall!  I got snowed under with so many different things going on in my life but I am now back and hopefully can upload lots more!  Today, we had our Christmas luncheon at work and went to a new resturant for most of us called Beer Run.  Their main room has beer lined around the room and, of course, there were numerous different kinds of beer on tap.  The food was delicious and one of each deserts lined the table at the end.  We all shared in the scrumplus deserts! 

The card above was made for the monthly set of cards going to http://www.sparklensprinkle.com/.  I used a shiny red and shiny gold cardstock that I had had in my stash for ages.  I picked the ornament with the poinsetta, stamped and embossed with gold detail embossing powder.  I then used Spellbinders dies called heirloom ornaments.  I love this set of stamps from SparklenNSprinkle.  Don't you?  Everyone enjoy their weekend!
