Joy

I'm still on a mission to try and use my snippets mountain rather than using new sheets of paper and card.  This card uses snippets of dark red mirri and a gold holographic mirri card, although I've struggled to take a photograph which shows the shine from the two cards.

I trimmed a piece of white hammer card so it was slightly smaller than the front of the card blank and die cut the plain 'JOY' from the centre.  I rounded the corners of the panel and attached it to the card.  I die cut the plain 'JOY' from red mirri and inlaid it into the panel.  I die cut the fancy 'JOY' from gold holographic mirri and attached it on top of the red letters.


To make this card I used:
     6" x 4" white hammer card blank
     Creative Expressions 'Festive Collection - Joy' die
     Snippets of red mirri card, gold holographic card and white hammer card
