This card is also being entered in the Mod Squad Challenge – It’s My Favorite, where we are to create our all-time favorite kind of card, be it a technique, color, layout, or whatever else we may love. We have free rein to do whatever we want, as long as it’s our most very favorite kind of card. (http://modsquadchallenge.blogspot.com/2014/10/its-my-favorite.html) My favorite type of card is distressed or vintage. I tend to like warm colors and use a lot of browns!

The stamps I used for this card project are from the Gina K Designs Fabulous Frame and Christmas Joy sets. I used Gina K dark chocolate ink and Tim Holtz vintage photo distress ink. The card stock I used is Gina K Sandy Beach and Kraft. I also used printed paper (digital) I purchased on Etsy (Adeste Fideles Sheet Music and the background version of the same paper without the sheet music, which she made for me on my request, so I had matching paper on which to stamp my focal image – Thanks, Rachel!!) I used ribbon for the belly band from my stash.

Thanks for checking out my card project!

Lisa, that is absolutely an awesome card. I was wondering how the Madonna and child from Christmas Joy would fit in the oval – it’s perfect. Love the music background paper,

Gorgous card! I love the dp and really want to get some of that. Wish I had ordered that stamp set now, too. But there’s still time. What a wonderful job you have done once again, Lisa! Are you on a design team anywhere?
