Merry Monday #295 - Photo Inspiration

Hello friends and welcome to another Merry Monday Challenge.  This week Marcia would like us to use the photo inspiration for our Christmas cards.

I used a jar image from Inkadinkado stamps, stamped it on vellum and then on white cardstock.  I punched out some peppermint images from Christmas paper and layered them on the white and then added the vellum over them.  I printed the Merry Christmas from my computer and punched it with a small tag punch.  I added some gold twine to the tag and then placed it under the red jute bow.  The sentiment is from MFT Dashing Deer set.  The pine branches are from Diemond Dies.  I embossed the white panel with SU Pinewood Planks EF, added a piece of wood grain paper at the bottom and then added the jar with foam tape, and glued the pine branches in the top corner.

I hope you will check out all the great cards by the design team over at Merry Monday Christmas Challenge and be inspired to join us this week.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day.

Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
