Jingle Belles - Fa-La-La-La-La Encore

Week two of our musical challenge.  This card was directly inspired by the sentiment - coming from Hark the Herald Angels Sing...........Glory to the Newborn King.


And while I did not struggle so much with the design, boy was it ever difficult to photograph this card.  The base is actually a beautiful shade of purple and all the embossing is done in silver with the silver glitter paper as the backmost  panel which looks pink to me in the picture, but trust me, it's silver.  I added some Illuminate ink around the edges of the stamped panel and then some glitter pen around that.  It just doesn't want to show it's pretty side tonight.  

Okay, time to visit the Jingle Belles and see what I've missed.  You can come too.  Click here.

  1. I love purple for Christmas cards, and it looks fabulous with the silver. That stamp looks so effective just embossed.
