Joy Is Yours

Hi again!  This is my second post today, so if you are looking for my GD card for 613 Avenue Create, please scroll down one post.  Rarely do I have the chance to post even once on Sundays, let alone twice, but I had a card almost done and managed to finish it, so I came back to share it with you.

Here it is:

My card base and mats are SU Cherry Cobbler and the patterned papers are from the Cosmo Cricket Tea for Two Mini Deck.  The adorable image is Carrie Princess-Free Wheeling by Elisabeth Bell for Elphine House Stamps.  I was lucky to have won her a couple of challenges ago.  I stamped her on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored her with my Copics.  I added in the sky and clouds and grass again.  I can never get too much practice with these scenery details.   The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  I punched the borders of the center panel with my Martha Stewart Arch Lattice Edge Punch.  I also punched and shaped a few leaves for the roses with an MS punch.  The two pretty roses are from Jacque's Sunday Sweet Stuff that I won awhile back.  A bow of green gingham ribbon finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you enjoy the rest of your day!
