A Sparkly Season and Sleigh Ride Christmas Card

I really need to learn to take better photos.  The words at the bottom are really straight and there is not that big of a gap between the top and the bottom of the blue showing.  It's the angle of the card and camera.  It's me!!!  But even if it were crooked, I know that you would make yours straight!!  LOL

This was a fun card to make.  It looks much better in person.  The globe has a window sheet on top of it.  I used the "Sparkly Season" set to make the snow part inside the globe.  I had taken a clear block and inked it up with Pacific Point.  I misted it and then stamped directly onto my Whisper White card stock.  Then when it dried, I stamped the snow using Whisper White Craft ink.   I cut it out with the 2-3/8" Circle Framelits Die. 

Next I used my "Sleigh Ride" Framelits Dies and cut out the sliegh and horse image.  I set the sleigh piece over my snow background circle and lined it up to where I wanted it and I taped it in place.  Then I cut it out using the 2-3/8" Circle Framelits Die.  I also cut a Window Sheet using that same die.  

The base of the globe was stamped using VersaMark and I embossed it using silver embossing powder.  I taped it to the bottom of the globe.  

The background snowflakes was made using the snowflake image from the Perpetual Calendar set.  I stamped off on each snowflake.  That piece was cut 3-3/4" x 5".  I set the globe in place using Dimensionals.  

The words are from the "Happy Scenes" stamp set.  I trimmed them up and rounded the corners with a circle punch.  I added Dimensionals to the back and was just about to set it in place when I noticed how light it looked. It would get lost.  It needed a layer. So I cut a 5/8" piece of Pacific Point card stock and then I added the words on top of that.  Then I taped that piece to the card.

I layered the focal piece on top of a piece of Pacific Point that was cut 5-1/4" x 4". And the base of the card is Whisper White.  

I do like how this card turned out!!! It's about time!  Sometimes I feel like I've lost my Mojo.  I've copied so many other cards on the net and sometimes I can't be creative or think up my own cards!  I did surf the net and I managed to come up with this!!!  YAY!!! 

Thank you ever so much for stopping by today,
