O Holy Night


I am woefully behind on Christmas cards, but wanted to play along with the Muse: Christmas Visions.  I love the circle masking.  I took a little bit of a different twist cutting out a bit of patterned paper and then stamping the image and sentiment. I finished it off by die cutting the stitching behind it.  Think I'll be making a few more of these. Similar to my card yesterday, this card was inspired by the Stamping' Up catalog too. They had a card with a touch of striped paper similar to the striped paper I used on this one.  Love the jump start from both the catalog and the beautiful Muse card below. The embossed details on the ornament are amazing!
