I came up with this quick and easy design to use up some gold mirror doilies I've had in my stash for a while. I borrowed the Holly Jolly stamp from a friend, and embossed it with gold on red cardstock; using a matching punch to cut the image. I added a white banner that was embossed with a Snow Globe ef from Sizzix, and added a sparkly piece of gold sticky ribbon that was cut into a banner and placed beneath the sentiment. The card base was embossed with a Cuttlebug Holly Branch ef.
I'm sharing this with the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge which is "Make it Sparkle."
Here are a couple more cards I made with this design...
Green...
and Vanilla.
Thanks for stopping by and make it a great Thursday!

Very nice cards. I love them all but the vanilla seems to show the background embossing the best. Hope you have a nice day today.
Wow Carol, these are ALL really gorgeous designs!! I just love the texture and the pieces really work well with this layout too!! I love the gold embossing and the gold doily really makes these stand out beautifully!! HUGS

Love the design of these cards Carol! I love that "holly jolly" stamp, such a cool stamp! The gold doilies work great in this design and I am loving the embossing. Hugs, Brenda
This is a nice design for your mirror gold doilies. All the embossing is fun and I do like that sparkly ribbon! It is a nice idea to get three out of one layout!
Lovely sparkly cards, really like the embossed details, and your lottery envelope is cool too, hope it's a winner! Xxx
Looks great in all 3 colour ways. Hugs Mrs A. and those darn elves.
These are all gorgeous. I really like the vanilla one. The embossing folder on the banner is very nifty.
All the cards came out lovely!
