Joy -- SCCC #34

I love the weekly Christmas Card Challenges and this one, especially, appealed to me.  One of my favourite sets of framelits, the Holiday Collection, retired along with the coordination stamp set, Scentsasional Season.  Luckily I can still use them for my own enjoyment even though I can't sell them.

I used the framelits to cut the little gingerbread person out of the new Kraft Specialty paper and the little candycanes out of last year's Season of Style paper stack.  Then I used the Joy stamp from an old retired set, Perfect Presentation.  I cut that apart so that I could mount the J O Y vertically.

My base cardstock for this card is Garden Green followed by layers of Cherry Cobbler, Pistachio Pudding and Whisper White.  The scattered stars were cut with my little star punch from the Red Glimmer paper and the Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer paper.  I drew the face on the gingerbread person freehand using some Inkssentials White Enamel Accents.



This was the challenge, to use the following photo as inspiration:
