Rejoice!

As it turns out, I have need for a few more Christmas cards... isn't that always the case? 

I decided to break out an oldie but goodie of a stamp set - the Sing Glory set. It has such beautiful images on it - and they are perfect for creating cards in non-traditional colours as well. I chose to use Sapphire and Silver. 

This pattern is from a BRAND NEW cardmaking book - Make It From Your Heart - Volume 4! It will be available as of January 1st! All I can say it that it is simply awesome :) 

I stamped the sentiment on the white cardstock before running it through the embossing folder. The gathered ribbon is some I had had for ages and it fit perfectly for this card. 

Unfortunately, photographing that silver foil paper is so difficult... shadows cause such a problem so I tried a face-on view as well as a side view - am showing both here. The ribbon looks strange in one view and the shadows are prevalent in the other...
