My card for Deb Felts (debdeb), the featured stamper today. I chose this one: Christmas Two-Fer Gift Card Holder by debdeb at Splitcoaststampers WOW! has Deb got a way with ribbon. Just gorgeous!
Changes were diagonal dp instead of horizontal/vertical, diecut sentiment instead of stamped, different ribbon trim.
Joyeux Noel is french for Merry Christmas. I don't speak french but we have friends who do. Cut it once in black and then in red. I used red tiny jewels to replace the dotted J. and the two dots over the e in Noel. Enjoy your week Deb. Thanks for helping me get a Christmas 2021 card made.

Shirl, such wonderful textures and shadows on this card. I love the splatter on the plaid, the narrow trim on the holly branch, the shine on the black mat. A great case.

Yeah, I'm jealous of her ribbon skills, too. Man. Your card is awesome! Love the splatter on your plaid and the scallop black mat. Your word dies are beautiful with your image, too.

This is SO beautiful and really made me smile! I grew up in SW Louisiana...Cajun Country...and of course, French is the most common secondary language spoken there, so this sentiment is very apropo. I've been away too long and wish that I could remember more of what I used to know! It's Mardi Gras season now, so there is the familiar "Laissez les bon temps rouler!" Let the good times roll!
I love the bold Christmas colors, the traditional plaid, and the care you took in the placement of those teeny rhinestones!

This is lovely, Shirl. Love your stacked sentiment with the two colors, as well as the red jewels; it adds a wonderful impact to your card. Your pretty twine treatment is the finishing touch!

Beautiful coloring on focal point, excellent! Love the plaid BG with the spattering. Amazing look. Die cut scallop layer and bold headline, perfect.
