Christmas Joy - QFTD30, Speedy's Friends


I've been in the craft room all afternoon trying to get some challenge cards made. I am entering my card into two challenges: Marks Finest Papers-Speedy Friend's challenge #24 and also QFTD30.
This week on Splitcoaststampers, the Queen for the Day is Lori aka MelodyGal. I used her design for my card and changed the image and dsp. Believe me, I am ready to be catching up on my cards. Going away and enjoying yourself has some pitfalls. LOL
Recipe:
Stamps: Stampin'Up! Delightful Decorations
Paper: SU Jolly Holiday dsp, PTI white cardstock
Ink: SU cherry cobbler
Accessories: Stampin'Up! Old Olive ribbon, Spellbinder's Fleur di Lis shapeabilitie, Stampin'Up! ornament punch, clear embossing powder for the ornament
