Hello friends and welcome back to Merry Monday! We hope you all had a wonderful Summer off and are ready to start working on those Christmas cards again! We have a few new DT members AND some special Guest Designers joining us this Fall, so there will be LOTS of great inspiration each week to help you get those cards done on time!
We'll start you out easy this week and you can choose whether you'd like to use the inspiration photo for your card or a design of your own, with the only stipulation being that you include the word JOY somewhere on your card!
I stuck with the snowflake and JOY theme on my card, but changed up the colors to blue and white.
I started by embossing several snowflakes in white from Casual Friday's Bring On The Snowflakes and then blended over them with DOX inks in Salty Ocean, Broken China, & Faded Jeans. Also added a little water splattering at this point. I used SSS Big Joy die for my letters and pop dotted the "O" so I could dangle a little snowflake (Impression Obsession - Tiny Snowflakes) from it. I also added some sparkle with my Spectrum Noir Sparkle pen to the tiny snowflakes on the letters and also a couple diamond gemstones. Here's a closer up view:
Make sure you check out what all the other DT members came up with this week and then dig out those JOY stamps and dies...we can't wait to see what YOU come up with this week! You can check it all out right HERE.
Thanks so much for stopping by today...I love it when you do!
