Hello Dear Friends!
As I'm sure you have figured out on your own ... I was inspired by the image in the lower left corner. I had a scrap of Buffalo Plaid designer paper in my scrap box and thought it would be perfect for today's card. Plus I love when I can use up some of my mountain of scraps! My 'Joy' sentiment (Penny Black - Winter Cheer - 51-255) was also cut from this same scrap of Buffalo Plaid design paper.
The frames were also scraps that were hanging on the hook from previous creations and that means all I needed to do was die cut a 'greenery sprig' of some sort so grabbed an older die ... Cheery Lynn Designs 'Holly Flourish' ... now it's assembly time.
Be sure to pop over to the Double D Challenge Blog to see all the details and amazing samples offered up by our VERY TALENTED design team ladies!!
How awesome is this! LOL
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hope to see you at Double D!
Beautiful Christmas card design and I love the plaid!
ReplyDeleteBeautifully created JOY card, the buffalo plaid makes the perfect background for your green sprig and the JOY in the plaid is the perfect finishing touch, plus looks like an easy mailer which is my kind of card, well done my friend and partner in crime!!
ReplyDeleteThis is so sweet Dar! That simple sprig of holly hanging down is the perfect pop of color.
ReplyDeleteI just love using dies and having a bunch on my desk and then creating something amazing like this card. Using scraps is a bonus.
ReplyDeleteOooh how festive! That plaid background is gorgeous, makes everything POP! Love your wonky placement of JOY and your pretty greenery! This screams Christmas! Merry Merry!

ReplyDeleteI love how you used the papers on this design. The white background really makes the JOY a star. Beautifully done.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! The offset background papers look amazing behind the white frame. The green holly sprig really pops on the buffalo plaid. Great inspiration.
ReplyDeleteGosh, Darlene, this is the prettiest thing! It's so warm and rich with the traditional colors and the buffalo plaid. I love warm colors for Christmas. Awesome challenge, as always!
ReplyDeleteLOVE this. That buffalo plaid patterned paper is da bomb, so rustic and country. Really pretty card.

ReplyDeleteI'm really loving the buffalo plaid papers this year, and it looks beautiful on this card! I like the sharp contrast of the white and green with it and your card is such a great design too! Joy!
