A Christmas card using the Big Shot

I have several Very Vanilla card stock leftover pieces from the Top Note die.  So I wanted to use them as a frame and sponged Chocolate Chip ink around the edges.  The size of this frame became my guide for the size of the card, which is 5 1/4″ x 4 1/4″.  I put a piece of Kraft card stock between the base of Chocolate Chip card stock and the frame.  I stamped the line of trees from Lovely as a Tree in Chocolate Chip ink, applied glue with the 2-way glue pen and added some Dazzling Diamonds.

The word “Joy” was cut out with the Join in the Cheer die and the flowers are from the Basket & Blooms XL die and cut out with the Sizzix Big Shot.  I cut the petals towards the middle of the smaller flower and folded them up a bit for dimension.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!
