Matthew 1:21

       Today's card was inspired by a store bought card we received last Christmas.  It reeked of a popular embossing folder with the swirls.  It's hard to see the swirls in this picture though.   
     I used a sheet of double sided adhesive with the embossing folder.  If I do this again I will run it through twice for a better impression.  An oval nestie was used to remove the center.
     The surrounding leaves were cut from a sheet of green glitter paper using a Martha Stewart punch.  Sticklers were used for the berries.  The golden glitter is from Art Institute Glitter.  It's really stunning stuff.  I need more....
     The scripture stamp is from Our Daily Bread Designs.  Baby Jesus is from Whiff of Joy.
     Enjoy your Tuesday!  Stamp on my friends!!
