Everyone needs some joy around the end of the year holiday season.  This contemporary slimline card wishes the recipient that the simple joys of the season are theirs.

I used two of Pink Fresh Studio’s Essential Slimline Cuts dies to make the trio of circles in two shades of green that form the main design element of this card. Pink and magenta halo glitter were sandwiched between two sheets of acetate using double sided tape. San serif letters cut from a bronze glitter sheet spell out “JOY” and are glued to the acetate windows.

Inside the card is stamped with a string of lights and the main sentiment. The same cherry red ink is used to stamp the string of lights and the word “Joy” on the back envelop flap hinting what’s to come.

Hoping you enjoyed seeing this card. Thank you for reading. Please like and leave a comment.
