Merry card
 

Very Merry

To create this bold card, delicately cut out stamped letters spelling "merry" on patterned paper. (The stamps imprint the letter outlines only.) Paste the letters onto red paper layered over green paper. Finish with a stamped "christmas," velvet rickrack, and a few grass-green brads.

SOURCES Paper: Bazzill Basics Paper (Tomato), Die Cuts With A View (Green #1, I Believe Words). Stamps: Stampendous (Mega Merry). Ink: Stewart Superior Palette (Noir Black, L'Amore Red), Stampin' Up! (Craft Whisper White). Accents: Imaginisce,
Bazzill Basics Paper (Mono Mix Brads).
