It's Wednesday afternoon, time to make a card....

Since I am so new to cardmaking, I do not own a Christmas stamp....ouch!!  So, time to think outside the box.... I cut a triangle for a tree, decorated it with plastic beading, added some glimmer dust, outlined it and the trunk which is in purple to match the background, in black pen, used my Cuttlebug to emboss the white cardstock, added the sentiment Joy from Kimmie's Stamps and voila...I have a Christmas card.
