Joy to the World

>> Tuesday, November 29, 2011

Hi Everyone,

My card share today at the DRS Designs blog has a monochromatic color scheme in shades of purple and lavender.  It's just a little something different from the usual red and green I usually use for the holidays.  Taking inspiration from my Joy to the World sentiment, I embossed my white background with music notes.  The tilted panel was also embossed and I used my Fiskars corner adorner and punched all of the corners to match each other.  The main Holy Family Manger stamp was stamped and fussy cut and adhered on top of the card.  The little star that you see is also part of the Holy Family Manger stamp.  However after stamping it, I cut it out with a star punch and layered it on a second star.  This gave me the option of placing it where I wanted it to appear on my card.


I love making a mix of of cards for the Christmas holiday...Everything from Christian themed ones, to winter ones with snowmen.  No matter what your style, DRS Designs really has a great variety of stamps and you can check out the latest designs right here!

Happy Christmas season!

So beautifully done in this monochromatic color scheme and I like how it's angled, too.
