Happy Thursday, everyone! I know today is St Patrick's Day, but I have a Christmas card for you, LOL! I wasn't sure I would be able to pull off the Merry Monday's challenge of black, white and silver, but I persevered! I also used the Jingle Belles challenge of Spirit of Christmas Past (Joy to the World music) and the Stamp, Ink, Paper sketch:
And here's my card:
I printed out some vintage sheet music from the Graphics Fairy in grayscale to use as my background. The sentiment, stamped in Silver Encore ink, is from Papertrey's O Holy Night, and the silver glimmer paper bell is cut using a Lil'Inker die. I used glimmer paper for my back panel and the banners are Basic Black and Silver Foil from SU:
And I love the inside too....another sentiment from O Holy Night, and I used the little silver stars that I popped out from the bell to accent it:
Cassidy had another birthday party for AJ; I didn't have the heart to tell her these were Christmas gift bags, LOL! He is excited about his DVD!
Two of the guests (I dare you to keep a straight face!):
And she "helps" him push his new cart!
Enjoy your day!
