Sending Joy

Sue is our hostess this week at Just Us Girls Challenge #753 Word Week and she has chosen the word Joy. I used these dies at a friend's house and did not know what I would make until I finally sat down to play this week. (I die cut multiples of all the elements in different colors.) There are endless possibilities! Here is my card for this week's challenge. Do check out the team's wonderful cards as well as that of our guest, Jenn Borjeson.








All products are recent Spellbinders (Olive Martinis dies and Christmas Cocktails dies) other than the patterned paper background. I would love to have this drink in hand just to see it sparkle! I used shiny gold cardstock for the glass, white glitter cardstock for the beverage itself, and red sparkle cardstock for the bow and candy cane straw.

Are you knee deep in Christmas cardmaking or are you done already? I love making tags and will begin that project soon. Happy holiday crafting! Join us with a "JOY" project of your own!

I totally LOVE this! That big, frosty martini with the peppermint stick looks so yummy against that pretty snowy pink background. Such a fun, festive card!

Carol...I love that you are always one step ahead. I feel like those SPB dies were only released last week! Love what you did with them! I have a martini set from Pinkfresh... you have given me the inspiration to pull it out!

That martini looks frosty with the glitter paper and all the decorations give a fun Christmas vibe. Fun card, Carol.

Thanks Elizabeth! I was at Nancy's and die cut a bunch of pieces, not knowing what I would eventually make.
