Joy to the World

Happy Wednesday!!  It's time for another challenge from The House That Stamps.  This week we have a beautiful inspiration photo for you:

And here is the card I created:

 I was inspired by the gold and the stars.  I used some gold metallic guilding paste to stamp the script layer, the star layer and the sentiment panel.  I also used it to create the gold mats under those panels.  I'm still working out of my bits and pieces stash, so the little glittery die cut stars were die cut from two little tiny scraps (I really try not to throw away any bits of specialty papers they can always be used for die cutting little shapes).  All my layers were cut from scraps of white and even the striped panel is made from scraps that I pieced together; love using scraps that way!!

Thanks for stopping by!  Make sure you head on over to The House blog to see what the rest of the Design Team has done with this photo.  And if you "need" any of the stamps I used, check out my 10% off your entire order coupon code over in my lift sidebar.
