Joy to the World - Sketch Saturday 28 and Cute Card Thursday - punches

Just a cute little "happy card" using the great sketch from Sketch Saturday Challenge 28. I had to reverse the little accent dots to get everything to fit. The penguins are Zooballoo, the paper is the Snowy Day collection (I keep using it!), and the tree is made with the MS branch punch with a double MS snowflake punch for the star. The sentiment is computer generated. Hopefully, this card will bring a little joy to someone!

Contemporary Noel

This card was inspired by the talented Jeannie Phillips (a placeformycards.blogspot.com). She used the MS branch punch to make a wreath for the "O" in Noel. I used some contemporary pinks and bright greens for mine. WM (where else?) ribbon DCWV paper and embellishments from all over!!!

My first Christmas Card!

In response to a challenge on the Cricut Chat messageboard, I had to make a green/pink/white Christmas card.......just too much fun! Also, my first use of the Martha Stewart pine branch punch that everyone loves so much. I used metallic cardstock, DCWV Christmas stack for the background paper, Christmas solutions for the stars (cut off the bottoms), Making Memories stickers (a $1 find at Big Lots!), and glitter, skittles. So far, I think this may be my favorite card. It is prettier in person....too shiny to photograph too well.
