Heart of Christmas - Jolly Words
August 28, 2023
Welcome to another week of Heart of Christmas. Each week, the talented ladies from the Art with Heart team will bring you inspiration for your holiday craft projects.
This week I have a cute card for you, using the new Jolly Words stamp set.
I paired the image with the fun prints from the Merry Bold & Bright Designer Paper with the Christmas lights at the top and bottom and bordered with the FA LA LA LA, layered on a Granny Apple Green card base.
The elf image was stamped in Memento Tuxedo black and then coloured with Stampin' Blends, using colours from the Christmas lights paper. I masked off the 'J and 'Y' from the image I coloured and stamped them separately in Balmy Blue ink. The letters were fussy cut and popped up using Foam Adhesive Strips.
I continued the theme on the inside, with the border at the top and bottom and writing panel in the centre.

This sure is a cute and fun card, Judy. Those little elves remind me of Noddy! The JOY sentiment looks great popped up and the wreath for the 'O'. Lovely and bright for the festive season.

Such a lovely fun and bright festive card Judy. I love how you have done the word Joy and your colouring of the wreath and gnomes is beautiful

Too cute a card Judy. Love the FA LA LA strip of DSP together with the Christmas lights. A very bright and cheerful card.

Such a cute card Judy. You elvish JOY is a delight. The Balmy Blue J & Y is gorgeous with the coloured wreath & elves. I love the bright & happy colour combo with the Merry Bold & Bright DSP. The Falala is brilliant as a border. xxx

Such a fun bright card Judy. This stamp set is also on my wish list. I really like the use of white space to balance the busy paper and your colour choice is so happy and festive.

Just delightful, Judy! The DSP is a perfect complement to the playful image (that you have coloured so beautifully). I love that you carried it over to the inside of your card, too.
