Joyful Be Your Family

Hello TJ Fans.

Nothing says "Joyful" more than 3 little gnome-elves all dressed in their holiday duds trying to put up the Christmas lights.  

The way this gnome stamp was designed really guided me in the creation of this card. Doesn't it look like the one on top is reaching up for something?  Maybe it's lights, an ornament, a gift?

To create this card:

Using a stamping platform I stamped the lights in black (from the Christmas lights set of 4) on a white piece of card stock.  Next, on the same piece, I stamped the Merry Be Your Christmas stamp in green. I then masked part of that sentiment stamp before stamping the gnomes. 

If you look closely at the top gnome - he looks double-stamped.  He's not. What I did was stamp an extra one then fussy cut him out and put a clear spring under him.  I'll post a short video on Facebook next to this card. 

I added this to a piece of red glitter card stock then adhered that to a navy blue A2 card. Finished.

I hope you found some holiday inspiration with this happy holiday card.
