Merry Christmas for MM 105 Challenge

Here's another Christmas card for my every growing stash of cards!  Our challenge this week is to used decorative words using designer paper, stamps, die cuts or other creative items.

I have had ideas floating in my head all week and finally had time today to put an idea on paper and fell in love with it.

I used a piece of Brazill colored card stock (Sorry, I don't know what color it is.)  I also used Gina K's "Pure Luxury White" card stock, a small piece of mirrored silver paper (from a local scrapbook store) and a small piece of Stampin' Up's "Winter Frost" designer paper.

I cut the word Merry" from PaperTrey Ink's "Wonderful Words Holiday Die Cut Collection" out of the "Pure Luxury White" card stock and out of a piece of very pretty designer paper from SU's "Winter Frost" set.  I took the dp "Merry" die cut and placed it inside the cut out "Merry" of the white card stock.  I put the small piece of mirrored silver paper behind the cut out "Merry".  I stamped the word "Christmas" from PTI's "Wonderful Words: Holiday" stamp set in SU's "Bermuda Bay" ink.  I added blue/green crystals from a local stamp store to finish off the card.

I really love the simplicity of this card.  Thank you for stopping by and don't forget to check out all the other Merry Monday #105 challenge cards that have been posted.  They are all so beautiful.
