Christmas JOY

This card started with that adorable polka dotted paper... I just loved it...and it was buried in my HUGE paper stack... I am a paper collector.... My dear husband, Robby surprised me with this punch last Sunday and I just came up with a card to use it on... when I got started on this card I just got so excited... it may be my first "Word" card... I am not sure... I was excited about how it turned out... I would like to thank all my Cricut MB friends for the inspiration for this card!!... hugs to you all... ~~Jeannie

Joys of the Season
"Merry Christmas" cut @ 1 1/4 inches... I only used the "Christmas."
Street Signs
"JOY" cut at 4 1/4 inches.
J and Y were cut twice.. the top letters pop-dotted... O was cut 3 times the top two O's pop dotted...and Martha Stewart punches attached.
I also stitched with gold thread and inked it to pieces with brown water based dye ink.

    I love this card. How did you get all those little branches to stay in place--glue?
