Sparkly Joy



Word Week starts today at Just Us Girls. Sue is our host and she has chosen the word "sparkle". I built my very sparkly card around this wonderful fun foam backed "joy" die cut that I ran across as I was straightening up the craft space. Bravo Burgundy cardstock was a perfect match, so that became my card base. I opened my (new) package of Sizzix Opulent Cardstock Pack of papers and chose Glitter Ombre to use with my (new) Christmas Tree Pattern EF  I just love the way it turned out. I added a hot foiled sentiment, and my card was complete.
