Christmas Card Ideas - Week 2 Magic Monday

Today's Christmas card idea comes from the new Cricut Scandinavian Christmas Cards seasonal cartridge that was released on Thursday.  Check out the cartridge below:

As soon as I saw this cartridge, I knew I had to cut the "Joy" word art!  I thought it was just beautiful.

Then, I decided to make this 5" x 7" card:

Here's the card recipe:

1) Fold a 7" x 10" sheet of craft cardstock in half to form a 5" x 7" card. Ink edges with brown chalk ink.
2) Ink edges of a piece of red cardstock cut at 6-3/4" x 4-3/4" and then adhere to front of kraft card.
3) Cut "Joy" image at 4", all layers with colors as shown.  Adhere all pieces together.  Lightly ink edges.
4) Adhere "Joy" to a piece of designer paper cut at 6-1/4" x 4-1/4".  Ink edges of designer paper.  Add this to card front using pop dots.
5) Ink piece of cream colored cardstock cut at 6-3/4" x 4-3/4" and adhere to inside of card.
6) Using glue dot, adhere button to bow.  Adhere bow to card using glue dot, as shown.

Products used:  Cricut Scandinavian Christmas Cards cartridge, Basic Grey paper, Core'dinations cardstock, button and ribbon from Papertrey Ink.
